Match grade barrel fouling after 40rds?

Will there be fire cracking on a barrel that new?
Depending on rate of fire, contour, and barrel steel quality....it's entirely possible. It's burning 58+gr every shot, it ain't a 29.xgr 6br, lol. Op, are you letting next rd to be fired sit in a hot chamber very long(10+ sec)?

Match grade barrel fouling after 40rds?

Aside from the things that have been mentioned, when I've had trouble with a barrel fouling after a few dozen rounds it's been because of the powder. Either the powder I used was overly dirty or I wasn't getting the pressure up to where the powder burned most efficiently.

H1000 is viewed as a relatively clean powder. Is the load you're using on the low side?
That is a upper end load in my barrel, [email protected]. Not max pressure, but close to book max, and I didn't have more than 1-1.5gr until I got heavier bolt lift. Can't speak to ops load, but it isn't super mild.

This is an interesting potential strategy....

Though SCOTUS is so political now with zealots on one side or the other filling the seats. The balance is only in numbers, not in reasonableness when it comes to interpreting the Constitution.

Do you really see Roberts, for example, disciplining lower court judges? Or any kind of sanctions coming from a court that has a history or its own activism or compromise?

Agree with the concept… the challenge is in the execution.

Right now the Supreme Court has no meaningful ability to control the behavior of lower court judges. My hope is that giving the SC this ability would be a moderating force. I think Justice Roberts would use this power, just not as often or as visibly as the rest of us would like. But at least there would be the possibility of clamping down on rebellious lower court judges like those in the 9th Circuit. Right now the only real way to change the courts is the nuclear option of Congress and the Executive intervening and if this happens we are going to get "change" but probably not for the better.

.223/.556 ammo recommendation

Black Arc Mk262 “Alpha”(NAS3)
77 SMKs at 2750-2900fps (16-18” rifles)
Good SDs and has been solidly sub-MOA

Edit: this data sheet was only about 100 rounds into this particular rifle, and this rifle now does 2825fps and 0.7ish with the same lot of ammunition. If you want to push 5.56 to its performance limit, Black Arc is solid choice.

SOLD Springfield Emissary 1911 5” 9mm

Springfield Emissary 1911 5” 9mm for sale or trade. Was carried for a little while so has some wear on the front of the slide from holstering but functions flawlessly and shoots great. Comes with 2 magazines (if you meet face to face they can come preloaded for you). Asking $900 OBO for it. Willing to ship to an FFL. Trades considered are as follows:
Bushnell Match Pro ED 5-30 mil+ cash
Manners LRH with mini/micro chassis for 700 SA
Nice hunting optics
CZ 457 based rifles or action in 22lr +\- cash on whatever side to make it even.
Too many projects unfinished and this thing is too nice to collect dust in my safe
