Hello Gents,

Need the Ackley shooters opinion of BBL life of the 223AI with average velocity loads. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated!

Dogzapper on 24hourcampfire, I believe, had close to 20k rounds through his. He mentioned that it still shot acceptably for him, but that the rifling was well worn in the barrel. If that number is true, it's pretty impressive.

Hell if its 5000 rds, that is impressive to me.
