How many rounds can you shoot through an SKS before barrel damage?

The SKS cartridge (7.62x39) causes little throat erosion. MOST SKSs have a chrome lined barrel (Yugos do not) which extends barrel life, especially with corrosive primed ammo. If the muzzle is undamaged, and normal cleaning followed, barrel life should be somewhere in the 25,000 round range. However, EXTREME rapid fire that heats a barrel to an excessive amount (have sen one set wooden stock on fire) will shorten the life of the weapon. They were never intended to be used that way.

At the range atleast 100 rounds are fired through my 9mm pistol. Is there a limit to how many rounds one should shoot at a range in a day to avoid barrel damage?
one shoots to improve accuracy. If you shoot 20 rounds and get a good group, why shoot 80 more??????? I have often shot for accuracy firing about 20 rounds. In my opinion the more you shoot the more tired you get. And, when tired you tend to shoot lousy and tend to just shoot the ammo off and go home. Always fire slowly, taking 'good' (SIGHT PICTURE) aim. The only time to shoot fast is when you 'have to'. When you shoot, bring the gun up, sight picture, and squeese off. Don't hold for long periods trying to find a sight picture. You will waiver and not get off a good shot...... like, one, two, three............. You will have to shoot thousands of rounds before affecting the barrel.........
How many rounds can you fire before changing the barrel of a .50M2HB cal machine gun?
It's done by time, not by number of rounds. If you're firing "slow fire"--less than 25 rounds per minute--change it every hour. If you're firing "rapid fire"--up to 200 rounds per minute--change it every half hour. And if the barrel starts to change color--it will first glow dull red, then brighter red and finally orange--change it right away. (If it DOES glow orange, the barrel is ruined and you'll probably have to pay for it unless you were in the middle of a firefight when it happened.)

What is a squib load?
Most often used in reference to an underpowered round in a handgun, a squib load is a bullet that fails to leave the barrel, becoming lodged inside. This is extremely an dangerous hazard to the shooter if he/she fails to notice as any subsequent rounds have a possibility of rupturing the barrel in the shooter's hands. If the shooter is lucky enough that the barrel doesn't explode, extreme damage to the gun will be the likely result.
