1. What is the barrel life on a Stainless Steel Super Bull Barrel? 2. What groups should I expect if I'm using a DPMS 24" Stainless Steel Super Bull Barrel? I really doubt I'll get any posts to this but I try.  3. Do any of you guys know how long any kind of AR barrel will last? |

don't know, but am willing to keep you posted. i have a 16" rra bull and a 16" 1:7 bushy bull (brand new, 0 rds) and have about 2000 through the rra at this point. rifle shot this last weekend 5 different groups less than 1" at 100 meters. i think it's still good. no cloverleafs, but she's wearing in well. |
| There are to many variables to give you an answer. The faster you fire, and more often you heat your barrel up, and the more damage you do to the throat. Slow fire always does less damage to your barrel, but no matter how you slice it, a barrel is disposeable. Use it until it won't work for YOU anymore. |
