[QUOTE="FURMAN, post: 1863090, member: 26535"] The throat has only moved .010 but that is not a great indication of remaining barrel life. I would guess this barrel will be good for another 200 rounds but not sure it will ever find its way back on the action. You are not going to break 1k rounds with 75 plus grains of powder without having fliers due to the barrel being done(unless you truly shoot one and let it return to ambient before firing another round). I don't care what some try to say. ADG is as consistent as Nosler brass but has 3 grains more H20 capacity. There is not one "good" brass maker. Nosler, Bertram, and ADG are all great options. The Bertram is not as consistent in weight but you can't see it on target at 1k. If you don't try to run Nosler at 80k psi like some want to do it will last 6-8 firings. I would pick ADG every time in 30 Nosler due to capacity. [/QUOTE]
