[QUOTE="dgr416, post: 1608441, member: 1208"] I have heard this before about large over bore calibers .I try to only use 250 grain or heavier bullets in my 338-378 weatherby .I Also use powders that use less powder than others 109 grains of reloaded 25 vs 125 grains of h870 .i heard the slower velocity of the 250 grain ..bullets vs higher velocity of 200 grain bullets that use more powder is easier on the barrels .I also do the same in my 264 win mag shooting 155 grain bulkets .I have not seen much written about this .
