Wait, did you just assume my caliber?
actually mine is 9mm, but I see your point
I did! And I thought of 9mm in the RO, but then I thought "insulinboy seems like a manly man, surely he has a .45!" That's what I get for assuming! LOL

How do you get the dog to stand still?Well, I don't know about all this "match barrel" crap, but I'll tell you that my tube feed 1950 JC Higgins Model 30 Semi-auto .22 rifle with built-in sling will still shoot a gnat off a dog's pecker at 100 yards all day long; and I'm sure that it's had way more than 5,000 rounds down the pipe in it's 67 year lifetime.
When the leg is lifted... fire away! LOL!How do you get the dog to stand still?

Thanks for the info, but I was just throwing my .02 in because that's what I do. Didn't mean any offense to anyone. I know a lot of accuracy shooters have pretty thin skins and can hardly ever take a joke, but hey, we're all different. (Oops, I just did it again!)The linked article is about high powered rifle calibers ONLY.......not .22LR. Lot less powder in a .22LR case.
If you explored the page I linked, there is an article by Dan Lilja that mentions .22LR, where he states a figure of 10,000rds and more for that rimfire. He states he has seen an Anschutz .22LR barrel that was finally losing accuracy at 200,000 rounds.

Yep, heat and friction are the culprits in all "wearing out" of things. Then let's look at drag cars..at 1/4 mile per run, not many miles on the motors before they are toast, i guess....Top Fuel, meh..
