[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1146633, member: 10755"] What cartridge are we talking about? If it's a cartridge that requires fireforming, pick a middle load and fire it, this will form cases and break in the barrel. If it's a true wildcat, with no factory ammo, just work up loads at the same time as barrel break in or load up enough middle weight charges to break in the barrel using your preferred method. I rarely break barrels in, mine get lapped prior to use and require very little break in, if any at all. It really makes little difference which method you choose to use. Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
