Maybe somebody can give me a good idea how many rounds I could expect to get out of my Rem 700 in 300 RUM with the factory barrel before accuracy goes out the door. I generally shoot 8700, a healthy charge with 180 NP's to about 3200-3250 fps. Don't overheat the barrel and don't do any extended shooting with it. I've heard all sorts of things ranging from around 900 to 1200 rounds or slightly higher. It currently has around 250 rounds thorugh it so I know the life is still there and accuracy is fine at this point which of course is the thing to watch. Just curious as to what you all think.

Thanks!
