Rethinking Barrel life - Actual COST!

[@armeddiver]

Marcus, thank you for making this video. It really expands what we should be thinking about as a shooter. In this case, not just the cost of [a] barrel, but all the costs involved in shooting a particular caliber. Again, thank you. Extremely informative.

I'm looking into building or buying a benchrest rifle. I would prefer not to change a 6mm barrel every 1600 to 2000 rounds, but it is apparently very hard to win with a 6.5mm. Although the Barnes target bullets are very good, I simply cannot find any 6.5s. All the benchrest bullets are 6mm, or perhaps 7.62mm.

It really depends on where you live and what you use. A sauer 200 str barrel is 5000NOK in norway are 6.5mm bullets are cheaper. But if you are going with high end barrels and bullets will probobly be cheaper here too.

The video isnt really for the STR crowd =) but you can still buy 105 hornady from germany for 27 euro/100 =)

[@jimhenell8943]

Where in Germany do you buy from?

@@jimhenell8943 Wiederladen alzey used to be a favorite of mine when stocks were low in Sweden. They have good prices on bullets in general

Intressant men har tyvärr inte riktigt tiden och plats för att ladda själv. Är dock sugen å å testa nån lite bättre/dyrare patroner än GGG som jag oftast skjuter med idag och de jag läst ska Lapua Scenar ska vara pricksäker men är ju rätt dyr för plånboken. Har du provat nått som funkar bra till .308W? Kanske svår fråga då du laddar själv men ändå :) Kul med ny video

Risk för en hur långt är ett snöre fråga - Skjuter man några tävlingar per år och tränar 1-2 gånger i månaden. Hur länge räcker 3-4000 smäll då? 1 säsong, 1 halv? Skjuter pistol å där skulle jag inte göra annat en byta pipa ifall den bara höll precision 3-4000 smäll.

[@MarcusOlssonVRS]

En stor tävling kanske är 150-200 patroner, en liten 80-100 =) När man tränar så brukar det gå 40-80 skott effektivt, iaf när jag kör =)

[@mrmurphy6289]

2-3 år känns ändå okey. Tack för svaret =)

Very interesting! In norway the 6mm bullets are way more expencive than 6.5mm atm😂

[@MarcusOlssonVRS]

Buy them from germany then ;) 27 euro for 100x 105 bthp if you buy 500 =)
