[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 648986, member: 24624"] When you can no longer tune your load to attain suitable accuracy, then it's "shot out" and needs replacing. "Suitable" accuracy is subjective. You decide. Proper barrel cleaning is important. There are many threads here that discuss methods. Barrel life for a hunting rifle is usually gradual and unless you damage the crown with improper cleaning or handling, the throat is what errodes first and degrades accuracy. Sometimes, you can seat your bullets a bit farther out "chasing the lands". But, that's usually a stop gap. -- richard [/QUOTE]
