Hi
Why to buy an old rifle if you getting Brand New Rifle in IOF 30-06
If you getting for cheap price then go1) check the grooves by cleaning it with brush and WD40
2) Bolt action for ammo ejection and safety pls do this with (carry )a dummy bullet if available
3) Best if you can carry it to a proper shooting range and check it

Technically the cal 30-06 is a fully metal jacket bullet .the barrel life of .30-06 is approximately 5000-6000 round.then after accuracy shuffle.it depend on person to person which fire more means decrease the barrel life.it not depend on model it depends on how much bullet fire from it.

.30-'06 ammunition available today that is commercially for sale is seldom loaded with full metal jacketed bullets.

Almost all military ammunition, including .30-'06, 7.62x51, 7.62x39, .303 British, 9mm x 19 (Luger), 45 Auto, etc, are all loaded with full metal jacketed bullets, due to conventions of war that forbid any sort of expanding bullet, including plain lead ones, like the famous "Dum Dum" bullet used by the British. These were considered inhumane, so the British designed their .303 ammunition to be inherently unstable -- when the bullet hit something, it would tumble or "keyhole," making the wound larger than the bullet's diameter.

The .30-'06 cartridge can use full metal jacketed bullets, like any other cartridge can. 32 Auto cartridges usually have full metal jackets because that ammunition feeds more reliably than any other kind of bullet in a semi-automatic pistol.

It is true that barrel life depends on how quickly and how often the gun is fired. A barrel that is excessively heated from firing won't last as long.

The powder used in a load can also affect barrel life. Some powders burn hotter than others.

Another factor in barrel life is the accuracy that is demanded. The military, for example, may allow 5,000 rounds for a service rifle, but half of that for a sniper rifle which must meet more stringent accuracy requirements.

Oddly enough, one might think that a full metal jacket contributes more to barrel wear than a plain lead bullet, but the authorities I've read indicate that a lead bullet has more friction that a copper or gilding metal jacketed bullet does. I can't say that this is true for all full metal jacketed bullets, or jacketed bullets in general, because the Soviet Union pioneered the use of soft steel jackets to to conserve stratigic metals like copper during wartime, and most Russian ammunition today has steel jacketed bullets (and steel cases too, for the same reason). The steel jacket is serviceable in military use, but I can't say how it affects barrel life compared to a conventional jacketed bullet.
