Dead still afternoon took 2 shots to get him 1st a bit high didnt compensate for the angle, it just sat there looking at the puff of dust then boom. Yeah barrel life is a bit short thats the price you pay for the performance. Better than the 220 swift or 204 ruger though, and i suspect the 223/08 would burn them pretty quickly as well.
