Come on man, 1000 rounds ain't "shot out in a hurry". Its gradual. Maybe to a point where its a 300 round period where accuracy degrades.
No you mis-read. that was 1000 on that trip, I don't even know how many rounds went through that tube before that trip.....Maybe 4-5-6000. And oh yeah it went quick[8D] a lot of rounds in a short amount of time.....Good Times!
Last year I went with the intentions of shooting out a barrel. I wanted to build a custom with my 223's action but hated to throw away a "shooter" barrel. I knew that it had a lot of rounds through it and figured I could shoot it out. Trust me it can be done!
