[QUOTE="jb1000br, post: 28246, member: 1459"] if i were you... do necessary load developement to get you thru your antelope hunt then when you get back break it in as much as you can. if you only get to the range rarely then take six shots each time and shoot and clean between each one but use #6 to foul the barrel before you shoot groups. after a few range trips the barrel will probablybe well broken in. the idea is to "temper" the bore to fouling until it decreases to the minimum. as long as you dont burn 50 shots thru a new barrel without cleaning the fouling wont be too great.
