[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2838894, member: 101791"] Barrels can be hard to come by. The 6mm/280AI I did order out a 2nd 6mm blanks barrel to start with. The .25 cal barrel I am still waiting for. This time I only order out one. All are 1-7 twist rate for all copper bullets. The only reason for that is I don't know just what length I may want to use. So I am starting with a 28" to be cut back to 26". My 6mm barrels is a 32" barrel. So the wait time can be very long. Other than that yes all cartridges are barrel burners. That I agree with. Once your barrel is broken in, why you need to continue to fire-form your cases. So I guess that if it takes up to 3 or so firing to completely fire-form case. I feel you are long way into burning out your barrel by the time you a have a fair amount of fire-form cases. So my feeling is set up a dummy action to do your fire-forming. The smith can set it up to change out the barrels for different chamber, just have to tork the barrel properly. [/QUOTE]
