At what point does the accuracy start to dip enough for you to think about replacing a barrel? Also, how many rounds did you fire before making that call? Please share the caliber and its intended use too!
 
6.5 Remington Magnum, E. R. Shaw, SS Rem Varmint contour - 2,200 rounds.
7 mm Remington Magnum, Remington SS 40X Heavy Target contour - 1,600 rounds.
6.5X06 Krieger, SS Light Palma contour - 1,792 rounds.

All were used in field matches, F-Class, and Plinking steel out to ~ 1,200 yards.

Cheers
