[QUOTE="5.56×250, post: 1785216, member: 110162"] I'm glad my way of thinking is backed up by someone with a wealth of knowledge on the subject. The only real difference in our techniques is I havent used a chrono to help me decide when my barrels are broke in. I just never thought about it. I'm sure those that have used a good barrel break in technique can attest to the "feel" the barrel gets when the burrs are smoothed out. That smooth patch feel when you run a clean dry patch through the bore along with the lack of blue color on an ammonia solvent soaked patch has been enough to convince me of when a barrel is "ready" , but I think I will watch velocity too in the future. Just cant get away from learning something on this site if you aren't careful ! Lol [/QUOTE]
