I hear they are big reddit stars though.
Man y'all have a sense of humor that dwarfs mine.
I don't EVEN know what "shooting out" a 22lr barrel means.
Is that a thing?
Were just now getting past the midget jokes.
@HKShooter65300,000 rounds and about 20 years.
View attachment 197559 Barrel on the right is a new ( only about 1,000 rounds through it) one.
One on the left is what 20 years of massive plinking will do to one.
I was hoping he would at least comment on his calling bullshit on me. Typical democrat/socialist reaction when slapped upside the head with facts and proof that their assertions are incorrect. Run and hide and pretend they never heard it while praying to the Bern that all of us are loaded into boxcars for re-education.He's incredibly busy hosting some special event dontchaknow.

Y'all have gone past feeding the troll. Now you're trying to call him to dinner.
Yes, bore was worn. Still shot mediocre groups at 25-50 but past that a ten shot group looked more like a shotgun pattern.??
Imaginative mischaracterization, though I was very, very busy with family travel obligations and off professionally.
300,000 rounds in 20 years is impressive and I know doable at about 2 bricks a month.
The breech face is notably worn from all the pounding the bolt did.
Even more impressive is at 10 cents a round you would spend $30,000.00. Also doable.
I have a Belgian Browning SA22 takedown that I shot all through middle school, high school and college at at least a brick to two a month. It is occasionally still fired.
I know it has somewhere between 100 and 150 thousand rounds through it.
Several years ago I had the opportunity to view the barrel with a fiberoptic bore scope..
It's bore is indistinguishable from new other that a little beveling of the lands in the centimeter proximal to the chamber. The bolt face and breech face are pristine.
A question about which I'm curious.
Your 300,000 round 22lr has an impressively peened breech face.
Is the bore worn at all?
I wasn't really calling bullshit until the invitation to do so was placed.
Exactly this. The bore had the same kind of damage near the chamber and the rifling was not worn smooth, but was noticeably less than crisp.That bolt face damage is not front the bolt hitting it. It's erosion from the hot gasses escaping the chamber when the bolt is cycled.
