All right I'll say it if no one else will. 700 rounds of over max loads in a hot 7mm. 1.5mmof throat erosion and likely a rough throat as well. The barrel is likely poked and the lugs may be set back...

Interesting wager. And I'd be on your side no matter what caliber. That's the bit I find interesting/intriguing/scary. Internet hotshots who talk about long range hunting, but don't seem to shoot...
