Pressure doesn't really burn out barrels, but could be defined as a contributing factor to higher velocities. Pressure is more important to accuracy and preventing catastrophic failure. Heat dude, lots of heat from high velocities is what eats up barrels. I'm with Former11B, and if you keep running them that hot you'll burn those barrels out at <1K rounds.

Thanks guys. I will definitely keep an eye on it. Current round count is 1,860 and a bore scope shows no noticeable throat erosion so far.

Our XM2010s were sent back to the factory as part of a recall.
Fun gun to shoot though! definitely beefy.

Wish my pictures were better but here's another one of my .308 in the field while the can is cooling. I need a cover...I like the ones by Just Rifles

Thanks. She's a heavy girl...13lbs 3oz loaded and suppressed.
I recently cut the 20" barrel to 16.5" to make it more maneuverable and better balanced with the can. I painted everything using Rustoleum Camo (khaki and earth brown with some forest/drab green) using my tried&true pinestraw method. The suppressor makes it go from a sharp jolt to a soft push with a deep "CHOOMP!"
Since I had the barrel trimmed and re threaded, I was rezeroing it because I also use it for hunting (168gr Nosler Ballistic Tip over 43.6gr RE15) and I wanted to check the zero unsuppressed (setting the knobs to 0/0) and seeing the adjustment needed for any POI shift when adding the can. 6 clicks up and I'm in business
