I watched a shooter trying to sight in a new 30/06 at a range I visited in Colorado 2 years ago. His elcheapo(but cool looking) scope was not adjusting and he just kept blasting away. After he'd used up most of his 60 rounds of ammo, I offered some advice and suggested he let the barrel cool a little. The guy foolishly laid two fingers on the barrel just in front of the chamber and immediately received two fine blisters on those finger tips.
I can't see why one needs to shoot that quickly unless in combat but some do. I've seen the borescope results of overheated barrels and the snakeskin looking interior is not what I want in my bore. Anyone shooting my rifles at targets had better count to ten nice and slow between shots or lose his privileges.
