How many round to 'shoot out' a 30-06?
      02/04/07 04:53 AM

Hey Guys;
I have a Whitworth Mauser actioned 30-06 that has been
mine for 30+ years. Some years I shot it a lot, some years
not so much. All totaled it probably has about 7-8,000
rounds through it. Never hot loads, never fired with the
barrel hot. Over the last year, the accuracy has gone to
hell. It always shot 1-1.5" groups, now it is getting worse
every time I shoot it and it's up to about a 3-4" group.
In the last few months I have re-bedded it to eliminate
that problem and changed scopes twice just in case my 30
year old Leupold was failing. Nothing I do seems to help.
How may rounds of 30-06 could you expect before the barrel
is done for? And I cannot tell by looking inside if it is
shot out.
Thanks
Raff
