I'm the second owner of this rifle and I'm afraid I do not have a firm shot count for the barrel. I have put fewer than 30 down it over the past couple of years which is why, in spite of my admiration for it, I'm choosing to sell it. I do have a bore camera and if you'd like I can take some pictures today of the throat and send them to you.
 
Per question from @Kurz about the shot count (I don't have a solid number), I'm adding some pictures of the bore from this morning.

Pictures:
  1. A land immediately inside the muzzle
  2. A land mid-bore
  3. A land coming into the leade at the chamber
  4. Second pic at the leade to better see neck end of chamber
To my amateur eye, this bore appears to have very few shots on it. The land edges are crisp. The lands coming into the chamber at the leade are well defined and not worn. Very little fire cracking and no carbon build up where the case neck ends in the chamber.

Thanks for your interest!
