[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 1437579, member: 12282"] I am about to break in a new 280 AI barrel. Bartlein. They have some extreme recomendations, like cleaning after every shot etc.... But that's not the point. My question is this: Bullet seating. I have Nosler 280 AI brass. I will be neck sizing after the first firing until I have trouble chambering. I'd like to make sure that the axis of the brass is perfect to the chamber. Its a blueprinted and trued action. So I am thinking to seat the bullets long, into the lands during break in (and initial firing of my brass) so I can minimize case stretch and also keep axis perfect. Loads will be reduced a touch. BUT --- I also would like to clear out the milling remnants in the throat ASAP as well, to get her broke in ASAP. Anyone have an opinion about seating depth impact on barrel break in time???? Maybe some jump clears out the milling irregularities faster? Just thinking out loud. Probably is not an issue.... [/QUOTE]
