Hi folks,
I'm in the market for a new bolt rifle and and am mainly considering the above two calibers. One thing I'm wondering about is barrel wear: I seem to remember reading somewhere that the .300 has only about half the barrel life of the 7mm. Is that true? And can anyone provide an estimate of the barrel life of either of these for long-range target shooting (which is something I'd like to get into but have little experience with)?
Thanks.
