I am curious though, how many rounds (ballpark) typically will trun a barrel south on a 22-250? Not getting too critical on how hot, and how many before it's cleaned and so on. Just your typical PD varmint rifle.

Everything I have read is right around the 4000 range. I had plans to re-barrel at 3500 but it keeps shooting, so time will tell. I don't shoot it much anymore. I like the Hall 22br, I can see the hits better as its a 14lb gun.
Have you heard of anyone getting less than that? I don't know too much about burning out a barrel in this round. I figure if that is what those are running at, that it can't be that high at those speeds. Mine is right at 400 I think.
That is totally dependent on how hot you get it and how often.I am curious though, how many rounds (ballpark) typically will trun a barrel south on a 22-250? Not getting too critical on how hot, and how many before it's cleaned and so on. Just your typical PD varmint rifle.

You can easily burn one out in 1,000rnds or less with lots of rapid shooting.
Absent that, I've had .220swift and .204 Ruger's last more than 4000rnds before starting to open up to greater than MOA.
You should. Just avoid max weight bullets and max loads and the barrel life should not be a problem.I am fairly easy on it. When in the pd towns, I never let it get hot. That's why I brought several other rifles with me. One gets warm, not hot just warm I set it aside and then on to the next one. I have know some out there that get them so hot they can't even touch their barrels. Mine has never been there or even close. So I guess if your easy on them one could expect the higher side of those figures.
Off subject (kind of), but can you see why we don't really have to worry about being "invaded" by another Country, during a war? With all of us non military "Snipers" scattered through just about every State in OUR Country, the invaders would retreat in a hurry after watching their comrades being dumped from 1500 yards and in!!! LMAO. Keep up the good fight, and keep building those tack drivers, Brothers and Sisters!! gun)
Yep, but as many Japanese lived and were educated in the US prior to the war in all likelihood that too figured into their thinking. If it didn't the Alaskan Scouts who handed them their asses in the Aleutians definitely convinced them.Think that was Russia....

Not bogus. The quote was taken directly from a Russian defector and was part of the basic education of every new recruit to the Army for decades.I looked but all I could find was on factcheck, apparently it's something gunrights groups like to spread, but factcheck reported it as bogus. Meh oh well I like it anyway gun)
