[QUOTE="bthomasb1, post: 723878, member: 39017"] Yes new barrels should be broken in,when I have a new barrel to break in I clean the barrel after every shot for 20 rounds making sure the barrel stays cool ,then I shoot 6-8 3 shot groups cleaning after every 3 shots, after that i dont shoot more than 21 rounds without cleaning for 100 rounds or so,some say my method is a little extreme but it works for me.I also look at the bore with a hawkeye borescope before i shoot it and after the first 40 or so shots,good luck with your new gun.:D [/QUOTE]
