[QUOTE="Remmy700, post: 1413652, member: 36564"] Wow. I think a suppressor shortening barrel life only affects morons that don't take care of their weapon. Once you have a rifle for a while you learn that gun. I will take a 260 I have for an example. If I know through my experience with that rifle that at about 210 rnds my groups will start opening up and that is when I need to do full cleaning then I will have to relearn that rifle again once I start shooting it suppressed. As mentioned earlier suppressors do without a doubt dirty up your barrel quicker but once you learn that number where the accuracy becomes unacceptable for your liking and do full cleaning just like running no suppressor. I think what tends to happen is the tactards once getting a suppressor installed want to turn into Bob Lee Swagger and pay no nevermind to the fundamentals of showing proper loving to your rifle. Running barrels hot, with long strings just because its quieter to show off at the local range to impress their multicam bedazzled buddies. Then when their rifle barrels bore looks like that of a Remington 870 they blame the suppressor! lol [/QUOTE]
