I spent 20 years as a remote duty Deputy Sheriff before retirement. The man that taught me reloading was over 70 when we met many years ago. I feel fortunate to have learned many of the "forgotten" older ways of doing things. I would take my lunch hour at his house every day. This gentlemen reminds me of him.

@@tacticalcoffee7397 Whats that supposed to mean? I have met some of the most pro-gun people here in CA. Most people do not understand CA. Literally over 80% of Cali territory is owned and populated by conservatives. Most of them pro-gun. HOWEVER the populations of the 15-20% of the state, which includes L.A., S.F. and Sacramento who tend to vote heavily Democratic, dominate our State elections. Its a real travesty. CA is not being represented properly or evenly. Plus the amount of illegal immigrants that are registered to vote(Because they were given drivers licenses by DMV who also registers people to vote) is absolutely astronomical. We have soo many non-Americans, voting in our Elections. Its sick! Please judge our Democratic politicians for that crap. Not CA.

@@Nick-wn1xw What the hell do you expect us to do? When the Dems took over majority once, they structured the voting system to where only the popular vote counts. As of right now, California gun laws are not as near as bad as NY, NJ, CT, Hawaii, D.C. and parts of Illinois. Why do not people always crack on them instead. California also has more pro-gun people throughout the state than any other state except maybe Texas. But we dont matter to most of the country, and thats fine. Just shows that some "Patriots" are not Patriots at all. I am a Patriot. I will fight for EVERY SINGLE Red Blooded American, no exceptions. People look at California as a whole even though most of the state is actually red. So when Texas turns blue should I blame all Texans? Should we blame every single Canadian for their recently passed Gun Control? Also, the tax we pay on everything goes to funding the states gun control programs. The Democrats have literally structured the state to where every citizen here is funding the Democrat politicians and what they want to do. There is almost nothing we can do because we arent importing voters from Mexico and all around the world and giving them Drivers licenses so they can vote. There is really only 1 option and nobody wants that. But it is coming. Support your fellow gun owners and pro gun patriots. The infighting and bashing states as a whole is not helping anything. I have a life here, I cannot just pull the stakes and move, as much as I hate to live here. But without us, just imagine how much worse it would be. There will be some sort of Cali conflict by the year 2024, I DO know that. We will NOT tolerate all out gun parts regulation/registration when it goes into affect in 2024. That will be the straw breaking the camels' back.

I have an AR with an echo trigger, i'v already considered that barrel to be probably dying, but it's fun and I don't care on that particular AR (plus AR barrels are easy to change). the most i'v done was a string of 8, 30 round mags in quick succession (the echo trigger fires on pull and release. I can expend an entire mag before half of the casings will hit the ground). Now I kinda want to try and see just how accurate it is now. I plan on abusing that rifle more and like I said before, it's not a concern to burn out that barrel, and il prob keep shooting it as I am even after the gun is technically burnt out so long as it's safe.

I really appreciate your knowledge and experience in the shooting sports. I am also a Vietnam vet, have hunted elk, mule deer and pronghorn in Colorado since 1960. Matching the caliber and proper handloads with the quarry have given me much satisfaction, to be sure! This particular piece on barrel longivity reminds me of one of another of my pet peeves and that is being under-gunned esp. when it comes to elk. I see so many supposed "experts" who espouse the .243 cal. as a great cartridge for that species. If people do in fact go to the field with this intending to harvest elk they don't understand that elk deserve respect to use a caliber such as a 7mm or better that is much more capable of killing the elk rather than simply punching a small cal. hole and having the animal get away. thanks!!

I always find myself coming back here over the years when some new detail peaks my interest. Really appreciate you taking the time to cover all these subjects. By the way I own a 7x57 which I absolutely love. It's a german made spanish mauser and it's become my favorite deer rifle. Where I hunt in VA I'm lucky to get a 150 yard shot so my open sights work just fine (although they are upgraded from the original military grade sights. God bless

Your spot on. Your hunting characteristics are not everyone's shot. Your spot on for Cal for reason. I'm a long range shooter and a Elk tag holder. What you taught me in barrel life is seriously appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you very much for your service Sir! I also appreciate learning from your videos. You have helped me to decide to buy a barrel cooler that I was eyeballing for a few months, trying to justify the purchase in my head. It's not really expensive, less than $48, (Riflekuhl, same people who make Kestrel windmeters), but will be very beneficial to all my rifles during their time with me. You are a wealth of knowledge and common Noggin' usin' sense and I'll refer people to you! Carry on!

Thanks very much for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us, (your MANY 'fans'). As others have noted, you offer the most informative and interesting information on RU-vid-therefore you really deserve our gratitude. My guess is that you’re not in this for money, rather you just want to pass along the knowledge/(often common sense) that you’ve been accumulating since you were a kid. My target shooting buddy, (I’m a quadriplegic and need some assistance to enjoy this great pastime), and I have been watching your videos for quite awhile now. They’re great!

Ahh back in the day when M60 machine-gun equipment kits came with a spare barrel and an asbestos glove for the Number 2 gunner to swap out the hot barrel. I remember it well.

I've shot the 22-250, the .338 Win Mag, 7mm Rem Mag guns and fall back to enjoying shooting a .222 Remington. In a heavy barrel gun it's a dream, all rounds can go into one hole. The gun kicks very little and the report is just a boom. Even in a T/C it's so very accurate. It's a shame the .223 pulled the rug on the triple duce, it's my favorite round for fun shooting. As for pistols, I enjoy shooting .38 and .357 rounds but practice with lead bullet loads sailing at around 850 fps, just a pleasure to shoot and the barrel remains fairly cool. My trick is to bring two guns and alternate between them, especially pistols. I totally agree with you about heat and taking your time shooting. It's not a race, it's about practice and hitting the target. My family had enormous fun shooting a old Marlin 35 Rem which I loaded .357 FP jacketed bullets in at reduced charges, as a practice round. Everyone loved that gun where later sadly it was traded away. Heat is definitely the gun barrels enemy.

Thank you I use the 357mag hand hunting in western Massachusetts also like and use a 30-30 model 94 Winchester had good luck with both of these rounds I never liked to heat the barrel up! I am a welder and know that heat is not a good thing with alloy steel .

So maybe it's a good thing to take two guns to the range, and use each for a little while before switching. I thought I was just building some flexibility into my skill acquisition.

thank you for giving folks what to look for in the loss of performance and the fact that a bad barrel is an ambulance ride waiting to happen. this will give those who never thought of it a clue when its time to change it out. thank you for caring kind man. yes folks when you can see a dramatic change in your grouping it's time to inspect the barrel and consider a new one. you shouldn't fire it again until you've taken the proper precautions.
