[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1228738, member: 90080"] In general, it's better to break a barrel in enough to clean up the burrs and sharp areas that like to grab copper, generally caused by chambering. This surely has to be done prior to nitriding or you will find the hardened burrs will be with you for a long, long time. It took 10-15 shots to smooth out my custom barrels and a lot of borescoping to confirm there were no potential problems. Then a complete bare metal cleaning before shipping. This worked for me and I'll soon be sending another. [/QUOTE]
