[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1010945, member: 30902"] The .260 like it's parent the .308 will not be hard on barrels. Keep to my rule of no more than three shots per minute and then let it cool down 5 min before shooting again and I doubt you could shoot one out in a lifetime. The .260 will be less of a problem than the 6.5x284 in that regard. Take a can of "canned air" like you use to clean off computer parts and give it a blow through between groups and that should help a great deal as well. Remember heavier barrels heat slower but they also take longer to cool down. [/QUOTE]
