Heck yeah you could form your brass with one barrel and have formed brass ready to go for the 2nd barrel, lol
LOL
But that's why they don't weld barrels on.
I'n all honesty, I'm more concerned about the bullet grouping well at those velocities than I am about barrel life. Just because a gun can shoot them that fast certainly doesn't mean it'll like it and group them well. I'd hate to invest the time, then have it only shoot good groups at velocities easily attained by smaller capacity rounds. I'm kind of dragging my feet hoping they get their shop gun built and tested before I jump into the deep end of the pool.
If I have a 20-260 Improved built, think I should order two barrels at time?? lol
