Ummm, no actually.
Shoot an overbore like a .243, standard or AI version, hot and heavy for 8-10 hours and it could well be toast. Heat is what is causing the problem with high rates of fire. As an example most high quality .243 barrels seem to hold reasonable accuracy (say 1/2 moa out to 300 yards) for around 1200-1500 rounds. But if you start shooting 50 rounds per hour and keep it up all day without a break then the chamber area could well be shot out in a single day. A mild cartridge like the .223 or .308 Winchester might well go 5000-6000 rounds (if not overheated) and still maintain target level accuracy.
Most of the serious P-Dog hunters out here carry 2-3 rifles minimum for a shoot. Heck, I'm not even serious about it and I carry 2 rifles when I go. Shoot a .223 (or other mild cartridge) when you start with the close range critters, then switch to the faster cartridge once all the shooting is out past 300.
My close range gun is an AR in .223 with a 16" stainless bull barrel and honestly I can't imagine I will shoot it out in the next 5 years.
My longer range varmint/target rifle is in .243, after about 1200 rounds the factory barrel was losing it's accuracy a bit so I went ahead and switched to a Lothar Walther stainless. They say their LW50 steel is less prone to heat damage and wears longer than 416 stainless. I'm hoping this one will go 2000-2500 rounds.
