[QUOTE="BlackKnight755, post: 682178, member: 25675"] I like to use the break in rounds to obtain all the usable data that I can. When I start with a fresh barrel, I already know that there are only going to be so many rounds that I can shoot through that barrel before I have to rebarrel or rechamber (set it back) that particular barrel so I try to utilize every round that goes down the tube. Especially on my 6.5-284's, they are bad throat eroders, usually no more than 1100 to 1200 rounds before they have to be rechambered. By the end of the break in period, I have my max pressure for the particular projectile that I plan to shoot and I have already started to collect and document data that I can use for fine tuning the load... just my opinion though, BK.
