    Measured my chamber last weekend ( never did this before always went by the book numbers) and I have around .020" left before I have to trim on my brass.

    questions:

    How long will it take brass to grow .020" (firings)

    Rifle is a TRG42, I run 208's at 2700fps brass is 1980's win

    what's your guess

    Thanks

    2700 is a pretty light load unless you've got a really short barrel. My 26" does 2900 with 77gr of H1000 which isn't exactly a world on fire hot load either in Winchester brass.
