[QUOTE="Pappabear, post: 1701616, member: 37844"] I have 6 or so custom guns and more stock rifles. I did barrel break in for the first couple then watched Hodnets video on LR shooting where he suggest its a waste of time. I run a couple patches before I shoot it then clean it every 300 rounds or when I lose accuracy. Ive seen no advantage of barrel break in. One theory that supports my belief is back in the day, barrels where crudely cut and desperately needed some "smoothing out the rifling" per se. As said before, many opinions on this issue.
