Supposedly FN has figured out how to harden the throats enough that the barrel life is not a big deal. Besides; there is a huge difference between "machine gun accuracy" and "precision rifle accuracy".

True. I bet chrome lining has something to do with it also.
If this goes through then there will be Lake City Match grade 6.5 Cm brass on the reloading market. That would be a real bonus for reloading it.

Well I was hoping to get a large payment this past friday... Didn't happen. Sadly gonna have to wait
it's not. But I primarily use Slip2000 now (on high use guns), ballistol (on guns I don't use a lot) and the froglube on my shotgun.I'm planning on making my own lube once my supply runs out. 2 parts Synthetic 5W-30 oil + 1 part synthetic ATF fluid = awesome gun lube for cheap.

The problem with is that if it gets into areas it shouldnt, or is applied too heavy its turns into hard gunk. Also in cold weather it turns into molasses.
Frog lube ruined a duck hunt for me. Applied to my 870, some got into the firing pin channel. It was fine at the house. Get it to the duck blind and it hardened and bricked my gun.
Yeah I remember, we talked about it awhile back. You have to wipe off any excess with the lube. I duck hunted for a solid week in salt water, never cleaned my shotgun once and I had zero rust. And my shotgun is a Remington so it's made to rust
But I have switched back to using normal gun lube since you can basically run any type of oil to lubricate your gun. You can't do that when you run frog lube (you can't mix lubes). Other than that, I haven't had any issued with the Frog lube.
@achirdo not a fan of .308 but a damn good price for this rifle.

Yeah I would've bought it and swapped out the barrel to a better caliber and better barrel.
