I’m curious about Sendero contour barrels. I’m shooting a Bergara HMR Pro right now and while it’s a heavy contour, it’s still a bit light by most custom long range comp rifle standards. So I just picked up a new Brux tube in 6mm Creed from another SH member in Sendero Contour so I’ll have a new barrel at the ready and not have to wait on Bergara when it’s time to rebarrel. It’s .830 at the muzzle. .9something at the breech.
My question is what kind of shot string volume can I expect to be able to shoot before I need to shut down to cool off. I know from experience with the Bergara which is #6 Lightweight Target -about .750” , that I can run a 8-10 shot string before I let the barrel cool. I’m about to start shooting a local 600yd precision field rifle match and I’m hoping this new barrel will suffice for now.
