Read some stuff on the inter-web about .243 barrel life only being in the order of 1300 rounds!
In terms of its overbore I suppose this makes sense, however seriously thinking about changing my slot for one of these to something else, if the real-world barrel life is this poor, i.e. lower than a typical .300 win mag (circa 1500 rounds as I understand it)
I'd appreciate some views from those with experience please?
I'd be using mine for occasional range use as well as vermin, so it would take a bit more of a hammering than a rifle purely for live quarry
Thanks
