Exactly my point Dube in the post that rock got so bent about.

I'm not one of the Chosin Few but no more remarkable group of Americans ever existed.

dubePA, what sort of barrel life have you and other .22-06 shooters been getting?


Haven't shot mine enough lately to give a proper analysis (ran out of its favorite bullets), but the 1x9 twist Douglass already had a few thousand rounds down it, when it was a 220 Swift barrel from new.

With 65gr VLDs, my rifle would put all five into one enlarged hole @ 100 yds, hold about an inch @ 300 yds. With 60gr Vmax bullets, it'll do 1/2" to 5/8" @ 100 yards.

I do have some Sierra 65gr Game Kings (BT spitzers) for 7 to 10 twist barrels, but haven't tried them yet. Bearing surface is around .310, length is about .850. Listed BC is 303.

A bud that built heavy varminters, gave me the barrel. He went to a 28" Douglass 1x8 twist on his 22-06. My barrel was shortened to 26" via the rechambering,re-threading, which took out the original Swift throat and recrowned. He installed it on a Savage action I'd picked up.

My 1x9 twist does not much like anything heavier than 65grs, so far.

The bud that built mine, had a few thousand rounds through his 22-06 with zero ill effects. IIRC, the farthest he'd taken any woodchucks with it, was probably around 700 yards? I believe he was primarily shooting 75gr JLKs in it.


If three or more people think you're a dimwit, chances are at least one of them is right.

You are so full of schitt that your eyes must be brown, even my 6ppc wont make it that far with "zero ill effects".... come back with something real instead of making such ponderous claims and lets have a REAL discussion on this topic, in the meantime nsaqam can change his soiled undies and we can have a real world discussion without his childish vitriol.

And your reply amounts to what, as a comparison?

Some frequent this site for intelligent discussions. Others such as yourself, are apparently still searching for the attention mommy never gave them?

Rockchuck is an idiot and he's the second person to go on my ignore list.

In nine years, think I've only ever put two on the iggy list. Might could add another one without much fuss? ;O)

All I did was point out that you were wrong and you shat yourself, sounds more like you are the idiot

Your claims are beyond what is reasonable, if that is what puts me on your iggy list go for it.
