I know, rookie question but I’ve never shot a rifle as much as I am the Howa and I’m wondering about other than the obvious groups opening up, what signs are there? I have a 26” factory barrel with 700 rounds through it on 6.5cm shooting 2850fps.

I’m not having any issues at all. I just read on some of the 6.5cm stuff here guys talking about 1200 rounds and their barrels are done.you're a ways away. if you're having issues it may just need to be cleaned if it hasnt been yet.

That number I’d consider very abnormal.
Bad steel, horrendously abused or advanced muppetry to get such low life.
It is indeed.Is advanced muppetry a Steel head original? Cuz that’s fricken funny! I’m gonna have to use that.
6mm creed. Maybe. If pushing REALLY hot. But even then 1200 is pretty quickI’m not having any issues at all. I just read on some of the 6.5cm stuff here guys talking about 1200 rounds and their barrels are done.

glad i shoot 6XC if it's a 6mm then haha 1 barrel > 2I’ve had three 6cm bartlein barrels die at 900-1100 rounds with factory 108.
Most everyone else I know shooting 6cm experiences the same.

i pulled my last one at 1800, because i sold the action. normal idk 2500. i expect 1500 from my 22LRV which is based on the 6XC case, cruising at 3200What round count are you getting on 6xc? I’m waiting on a reamer from Tubb so I can make the switch.
And about what round count do you notice a velocity drop?
