I have a Bushmaster with a chrome lined barrel that has thousands of rounds through it...no problems at all.

By the way, I'm not a fan of steel cased ammo. Steel on steel in my bolts and chambers is a no-no. Just my opinion...shoot what you want, just practice!.
Salt nitriding (Melonite, Armornite, etc.) is showing to hold up quite well in civilian rifles.

As far as steel cased ammo, it's not the steel case that does any harm. Hornady makes steel cased ammo as well...
