Updated Barrel life Excel file

Just playing with the time setting. Wow it can make or break a barrel fast.

Consider: http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2011/09/gone-in-six-seconds-barrel-life/
It's almost all about heat in the bore

Mike,
I have QL version 3.8, but I just can't seem to be able to open the file with all the powder burn rates. I can open individual ones but not a table.

If you can get it to work that would he great. There are a lot of new ones. Mikes file though is significantly more up to date then what has been on the website.

You can't do it from Quickload.
Using File Manager go to the directory where QL files are installed. You'll see a file regarding powder. It opens in notebook as a txt file(ASCII)

Thanks for that Joe, I don't think I will put 100% trust in some of those figures. They have ADI AR2209 which is the exact same powder as H4350 heat index as 4000 vs 3760 and ADI 2213 same powder has H4831 they have as 4010 vs 3870. Depending on which figures you go with makes a big difference for barrel life predictions.
