One of my guns will chew up a buffer in about 250 rounds, and another one shows almost no buffer wear after even 1000 rounds, so I don't use buffers in either one. I use a Cominolli frame-saver in my 10mm, which is a special guide rod that accepts a thin buffer on both sides of the head so there really is no metal-metal contact. Might be overkill, or it might be unncecessary, but the original Colt guide rod had a plastic head that acted as a buffer, so apparently the manufacturer believed a buffer was a good idea in the case of the Delta Elite.
