I might be mixing up two different stories. Might have been the Armourer that posted the text from a MOD report on the subject. It was the results of a trial using Mk 7 and 7z ammo regarding barrel life.

The other story I’m remembering was in the Mil Surp forum I think, that was about reloads for barrels that had a lot of cordite shot thru it. The experience was the throat erosion was so severe that these barrels quickly deteriorate such that they could not stabilize a boat tail bullet even though they continued to shoot flat based bullets well…
Sorry if this is confusing….
