If true, it would be true for JHP bullets, too, as the jacket material is the same, and the portion engaged by the rifling is the same with both types of bullets.
If true, all the cadets at my agency's academy would be replacing their barrels during their attendance period at the academy. In reality, one barrel will likely last a whole career.
If true, several of my pistols would have needed barrel replacement at least once, if not several times over. When I have adopted a new pistol platform, I have generally felt fully comfortable, and "bonded" with the new weapon, after several thousand rounds. All of my pistols are still fine with their original barrels.
Competition shooters will wear out barrels, but not with a mere 1000 rounds.
