Maybe this is a stupid question but can you shoot 100 of them without fouling your weapon so badly that the law of diminishing returns kicks in?

There are ways--but as a practical matter, you can't shoot 100 consecutive rounds of any thing, smokeless or black through a Marlin or 1886 and have it continue to shoot accurately. The small barrels get pretty hot pretty quick. I suspect cranking 100 rounds through any lever gun would get it too hot to shoot and would possibly damage the barrel. I know 15 quick rounds or so will get the barrel on the Marlin hot enough that you can't hold the barrel in your hand.

I'm not talking about getting it hot due to quick shooting. I'm asking about fouling specifically.
