At a dollar a pop for ammo to "break-in" the barrel, try to get zero (it's a moving target when your gun ain't shootin straight), missing metal targets at 300 yards and having to figure out needed adjustments to get back on to metal..., it adds up quickly and the extra $100 for a nicer barrel quickly becomes the money saver.
Why did you pay a dollar a round for ammo? You can find hornady eld-m and hornady American gunner for well under a dollar a round. For like years now.
