[QUOTE="Tyler Kee, post: 1867817, member: 107051"] Not a direct answer for what you asked, but I got a wild hair sometime back and built a huge spreadsheet and article looking at the economics of "trainer" rifles. I never published it, but this is as good a time as any. [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.writtenbytylerkee.com/guidance-the-case-for-a-223-trainer/[/URL] The Too Long; Didn't Read (TL;DR) is that trainer rifles pay for themselves within 5000-15,000 rounds. Otherwise, it's still quite a bit cheaper to just shoot your main rifle and rebarrel it when it wears out a barrel. The spreadsheet is linked at the bottom. You are free to plug in your own variables for your own personal use. [/QUOTE]
