Sharpshooter I'll tell you what I think, here goes: This is on the average hunting rifle with various bullet weights being shot during that time. If someone goes out and just shoots the holy grail out of a rifle and never lets it cool or doesn't clean it properly etc. This is all going to affect barrel life down the road ok.

1. 22lr = 9000

2. 223 = 4000 to 6500

3. 243 = 4000 to 6500

4. 30-06 = 4000 to 6500, .308 = 4000 to 6500

5. 300-mag = 3500 to 5000
