Bob,.. Re-read, your LAST, Line,..
MORE than, likely, it's,.. shot, OUT, Toasted !
As a Former Gunsmith, I've noticed that, most, Weatherby Barrels, ( in the Fast Calibers) last, only,.. 850 to 1,100 Rounds !
My Personal .270 WBY Mag. Mk V German went, out at, 850-900 rds then, One Day, the group's,.. Doubled, in size !
Made it into, a LOVELY .338 Win Mag, 25 1/2 " bbl'd.,.. Elk Slayer !
"Clover Leafing" the 210 Nosler's at, 2,975 FPS with, a Douglas Premium, Barrel !
Now I save, the End Flap's of my Bullet Boxes now, to remember,.. "Round Counts" !
"Junk IT" and pick another,.. "Good Caliber" and Barrel !
ONLY, Your "Friend's" will tell You the,.. TRUTH
