The average shooter won't really notice a difference, but long term it does make a difference. The average regular barrel can usually get about 10k rounds through it. A CHF barrel can supposedly take about 20K.


I would think, although i could be wrong, that most people will never see those numbers shot out of their weapons.

Chromelined barrels will go well over 10,000 rounds. The accuracy will start to fade due to barrel ware. You likely won't notice it unless you have a precision rig.

eta:
Precision rifles don't use chrome lined barrels as they are less accurate (minutely) than other barrels.

Also CHF is cold hammer forged. The method of production which increases life.

With ammo prices the way they are right now, I doubt I'll see 10k through mine any time in the next decade or so.
