Will an aluminum receiver hold up for a side by side or over under 12ga when shot 300-500 rounds per year?

Benelli 828u is a gorgeous O/U with an aluminum receiver, but the breech face and the chamber are steel.
It will handle just fine.

Easily.
In the world of O/U’s that round count is nothing.
500 a week is nothing.
