Whiskey and wrenching part 2: 11.5 hard use suppressed training

**Furbyballer** · 08-03-19, 20:13

This portion of whiskey and wrenching is actually brought to you this time by glenfarclas 17 year scotch.

New training rig to shake out and review different items. I’ll be shooting this upper for the remaining of the training calendar until I kill the barrel. I’ll be keeping a meticulous round count and will be updating the group in round counts of 2,000.

Control groups will be shot with 223 fiocchi 77 grain. Barrel will be considered shot out if it can’t hold under 3 moa. Barrel will be cleaned every 1000 rounds and when the barrel goes past 2 moa my gun Smith will start tracking throat and gas port erosion.

Please include examples of your firing schedule. Example: you ran the VTAC 1-5 ten times within 30 minutes and for most of your range visit the barrel stays too hot to comfortably touch. I'm curious as to how long your barrel will last, and at what firing schedule, esp with the suppressor.

Shouldn’t be hard to work into my notes.
