Customer - What resource of barrel on how many shots he expected 5000 or 20000 shots??? Response-There is not an answer for expected life of a barrel and we cannot advise how many shots could be expected this depends upon ammo and maintenance only.
It is enough pent-up appealed to well-known expert on these matters Jeff Quinn: Hi Jeff. I put a question what resource of barrel Marlin XL7 30-06 and XS7 .243 Win. on how many shots he expected 5000 or 20000 shots?

So, what can be considered the minimum resource shots for barrel Marlin XL7 30-06 and XS7 .243 Win. 5000 shots. P.S. Standard cartridge+"Recommendations" Remington on the proper care of the barrel and use a normal cartridge.
