Quote from 7th edition Hornady Handbook of Cartridge Reloading about the 223 wssm; "We examined the throat of the rifle with a bore scope after approximately 350 rounds and erosion was significant. This cartridge is hard on barrels."
Seems like if you took one of these on a p-dog hunt you would have to take a couple spare barrels and an asbestos mitten.
