26 Nosler Barrel Life at Life

26 Nosler Barrel Life. Of retained energy at 1,000. Not sure if you guys saw it, but craig boddington (think he made general) was getting some pretty stellar velocities with the 26 nosler in guns & ammo.

With all of the factors above, the accurate barrel life of these rifles may be measured in the high hundreds to low thousands of rounds, depending on how hot the loading is, how rapidly successive shots are fired and how hot the throat is allowed to become. I suspect, based on case capacity and bore diameter comparisons, the 26 nosler will have a barrel life similar to, but slightly less than, the 7mmrum. With a volume of 93 grains, barrel life through a 6.5mm bore should be in the neighborhood of 400 to 500 rounds.

The.26 nosler is pushing the same bullet out of my custom rifle on a remington 700 action with a 26” lilga barrel at 3,650 feet per second. I could see a 33nosler in the safe too. Of retained energy at 1,000. You will also hear talk of limited barrel life, which is true.
