[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2659884, member: 1521"] You're way wrong about that. A good while ago I polled Benchrest Central(when it was booming) about accurate 6PPC barrel life, brass life, and loads. I had hundreds respond with incredible consistency. 'Competitive' were absolutely around 75Kpsi. Below this was not producing that considered competitive. Of course that is not viable in anything, including a tiny 6PPC, so their cases did not last but 4-5 shots, and their barrels were lucky to shoot good enough beyond 900 rounds. Just the price of being competitive. This is the typical load and accurate barrel life of a competitive 6PPC: [ATTACH type="full"]409026[/ATTACH] And an action barely feels the forces of a 6PPC, as it's area is so small. There is not a safety concern here regardless of action. [/QUOTE]
