[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 790580, member: 11717"] Breaking in a barrel is for conditioning the throat and bore for minimal fouling, not improving accuracy. The benefit is less fouling, longer shot strings between cleanings and easier cleaning. That said, some competitive shooters take a little different view of it taking up to 100 rounds to burnish and season a barrel for optimum precision and velocity... but that's not me or the greater number of shooters and hunters.
