I gave up on my 6slr barrel at 920rds.
Have 970rds on a 6mm Competitive Match, throat has only moved .005. It's shooting very well. Others have been reporting 3000+ rounds of barrel life. The key might be the slightly larger case capacity compared to the 6slr/243...., and the use of slow burning H1000?
DaveD, how many rounds do you have on your 6CM?
