I have not seen as bad a change, but, mine slowly opened up to more than 1/2MOA over about 1000rnds. Finally the light bulb went off and I loaded some a little longer and voila! Back to smaller groups. I'm using the 103gn Vapor Trail machine made bullets.
You can have the chamber/throat reamed, & set back.

The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
Besides the throat eroding over time, so is the leade. That leade must be perfect to the
rifling. If it does not erode evenly, which it wont, the engraving will be uneven and will
effect accuracy....And don't forget the crown. I'll normally re-crown 2 more times over the
life of a barrel I compete with.
Keeping my bad Karma intact since 1952
How far back do you cut a crown, or is it just enough to 'ream' the crown to refresh the edges?
