Is 30 BR losing favor???

About the only deal you will find on most any caliber barrel is a talkoff with maybe 600/1000 fired rounds. On a new one, you can wait and wait until the price goes up or buy now.

If I could find a deal on a 30 cal, 17 twist barrel I would be shooting one this season for sure.

Agree for the most part, but we both know it is not quite as simple as just adding a ring and calling it good. IMO, the closer one can hold to the intended POI, the better your chances of not getting burned on a quick unexpected letup. Been there. Done that.

Is that where all these scars I have come from? I've been wondering.

The last IBS score match I shot years ago was 100, 200 & 300 yds and lots of shooters were shooting a longer version of the 30BR including me. Is this still the case?

I think the standard 30BR is still by far the most common but a few are shooting the longs and a few more choices like a 30 Major etc. I like the 30 Major but it's hard to beat just a standard 30BR IMO and it's way more popular than anything else in IBS/NBRSA score shooting.
