...............Yep! Not a consistent bench round for sure. Should get a good solid 1,000 rounds or better from a barrel. More than likely better than 1000.

An ok round for occasional range sessions. 100 rounds a year? Maybe less, maybe a little more.

There are reports of guys getting in excess of 1000 rounds from their 6.5/300 Wbys with still good accuracy. That round would surely create more barrel wear than would a 28 Nosler.
