Some of us shoot more than others. I burned out two barrels in 6.5 creed before passing the rifle on. I burn out a few barrels every year, and have since the late 1990’s. 2500 rounds of barrel life don’t go very far when you shoot 150-250 rounds per weekend two or three times per month, with practice between.

Again, guys can piss and moan all they want about how much they love cartridges which throw 140grn 6.5mm cartridges at 2700-2800fps, but it’s obvious how silly they really are when they point to ONE of the same and claim it worthless.

Either you’re standing up and saying they’re different, which just sounds foolish, or you’re standing up and saying they’re the same, and one is great but one is worthless... which sounds even more foolish...
