[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 733190, member: 25383"] most guys that have made posts about barrel life are speaking in the 600 round range, and some are much less. .300 Weatherbys are known for a fairly decient barrel life plus the better case design allows them to handle big long bullets much better. Some guys whine about the free bore issue, and most end users never do. But you can get a no free bore chamber reamer just as easy as one with free bore. Accuracey wise, let me simply say that a .300 Ultra Mag is an extremely rare sight at a 1000 yard bench rest shoot, while .300 WBY mags are fairly common.. That ought to tell you something. Now life with these cases begins at 200+ grain bullets, and both are kind of a waste with anything under 180 grains. If the shooter was thinking 180 grain bullets or lighter, I'd be thinking .300 WSM gary [/QUOTE]
