[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 2745429, member: 4191"] I watched the video. It was informative on BC's process of barrel breakin. If I had multiple new rifle barrels arriving on a regular schedule, I'd look for a compromise solution to shooting and cleaning back to bare steel for the first 10 shots also. I don't think BC would agree there's any compromise with their process. Their method works for them, with their source of barrels, with their barrel replacement schedule. It may or may not be the optimal approach for a guy that gets one new barrel per year. Or every other year. I shoot and clean after every shot until copper collection decreases notably. Don't view it to be overly burdensome. I collect some MV data versus powder charge during that process. Can also zero the rifle. Don't consider it a significant burden, or a complete waste if time. If I was prepping multiple barrels for students attending shooting classes, I'd likely do whatever "worked" well enough and was the least time consuming. Probably do it like BC does. [/QUOTE]
