OK I just turned my confuser off when it struck me, BAM... what you are getting at is the number of events, firings, that need to occour to erode a predetermined amount of material from a barrel. So a .224 will erode 8.9% faster than a .244. This means it takes 8.9% less firings to erode an equal amount of material from the smaller bore than it does the larger bore. It's the number of firings that equal time. Wow what a dunderhead I was in not seeing this to begin with. Can I go to bed now?<P><BR>Bullwnkl.
