[QUOTE="Reelman1, post: 2923029, member: 117124"] I don't particularly believe in breaking in a barrel in regimented fashion. I shoot til I BELIEVE its repeatable. Case in point is a Howa 300 WbyMag. Its been shot 32 times and gets shot twice, once a year now since I got aged somehow. Once at 100yds impact 6" high at 12 o'clock and once at 500 yds in the bull(basket ball sized). Never "broken in" and it's capable of that every year so far. From a sled. Same lot of ammo (bought 200 rds at a ridiculous price in 1995) 180 gn Remington. Left over ammo would sell for the price of a rifle today. Four safes FULL and none ever "broken in", except MAYBE some military bring backs. From pistols to 50bmg rifles. I also don't believe in scrubbing the life out of the barrel. [/QUOTE]
