I have one, and can't comment yet on the "barrel burner" aspect, only have a little over 100 rounds through it. But, if you don't rapid fire it, should be no worse than a 270WSM.
Mine started out as a 7RM Sendero II, but got blueprinted, rebarreled, rechambered and restocked. Shooting 140gr Berger VLD about 3150 fps w/H4831SC (I got more velocity & less accuracy from H1000, more vertical at long range (600-800).
