[QUOTE="Hummer70, post: 2692968, member: 85770"] If you are only going to be hunting and not be out burning 50 rounds of magnum ammo at a shot the 300 WM will do just fine. Barrel life as compared to 30.06 is only about to be about 10% of what you will get running magnum loads. It gets worse with 7MM mag and the copper fouling will likely go up. I set my 30.06 target rifle barrels back every 2500 rounds. I have one rifle that I have set back three times and it is still doing fine. [/QUOTE]
