I buy a half dozen barrels a year.
I shoot a couple hundred rounds per year.
I have 20 years left before I am too old to shoot.
I don't think I will ever have to worry about barrel wear.
That must be for target shooters.
I am a hunter, who just sights in and practices on targets.





There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. -Ernest Hemingway
The man who makes no mistakes does not usually make anything.-- Edward John Phelps
