[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 128634, member: 10"] Bart B, Your telling us you put 15 190 gr bullets into a 6" group at 1000 yards and then followed that up by another 15 200 gr bullets into another 6" group at 1000 yards???? If you could do that consistantly you would run the table in the 1000 yard BR match world. All I know is that there is no barrel maker around that I know of that would condone that kind of sustained shooting with their barrels and offer any replacement policies when the throat was burnt out in a few hundred rounds. Unlike the military, we have to pay for our own barrels and also to get them fitted. I guess we pay for theirs as well for that matter. I can not imagine putting that kind of abuse into a barrel that was a 30 cal magnum or similiar type of round. Not only are you wasting barrel life at an expodential rate once the barrel reaches a certain temp, unless your in comp, why would you do such things to a fine barrel. And if your in comp, why in the world would you select a 30 cal magnum???? YOu must be one hell of a shot my friend, putting 30 rounds into a 6" groups is something to write home about!!!
