[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1438000, member: 2736"] +1 Break in is very important in my opinion and a shoot 1 and clean procedure not only speeds up the process of removing any discontinuities left by lapping, It makes clean up and accuracy happen much faster. A quality barrel should break in with 10 to 15 shots, (I do 7 or 8 shots and clean after each), then shoot 2 or 3 3 shot groups cleaning after each 3 shot string. At this point most premium barrels are ready to go. Just give the barrel time to cool between cleanings. For break in I do the same thing in most cases buying one box of factory ammo (Standard velocity) and as you do the breakin, you can feel your barrel getting better each time you clean. It is money and time well spent in my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
