[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1793751, member: 30902"] Barrel life is an issue for some, not for others. If you're going to put less than 50rds through a hunting rifle each year it's not much of an issue. If you have near unlimited money it's not an issue. If you have a limited budget and shoot a lot, it's an issue. If you're smart and never shoot one hot, you can extend the life of overbore magnums far beyond what is typically expected. I have .260's for my high volume shooting and save the overbore barrel eaters putting just enough rounds through them each year to enjoy them and get what I need to do done as far as filling the freezer or hanging something special on the wall. Different strokes for different needs and folks. [/QUOTE]
