That is not to say that the barrel is automatically shot out and useless, but round number 3000 will never be as good as round number 1000.
Mark you are the one to ask this question to and I don't mean to high jack this but didn't the Swift and the 22-250 get a bad rap years ago because of the material the barrels were made out of?

Even with the advances in metals over the decades, the high velocity varmint rounds still wear out barrels at a much faster rate than most folks expect. 0 -
