Just ordered a Remmy 700 5r "milspec".
I also ordered a case of BH 175 ammo, but I have some Win Q3130 147gr ammo. This ammo would be used for non-critical shooting, but I am afraid that the copper-clad steel jacket bullet will adversely affect the barrel. This ammo is like the US mil NATO spec M80, and the Dynamit Nobel 7.62 ammo currently flooding the market. I have used XM80 in an HK G3 with no apparent ill-effects, but that is another kettle of fish.
Would these "steel jacket" bullets hurt the bore of a precision rifle barrel?
Regards,
Jorge
