[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 803706, member: 5302"] What makes you think the barrel needs breaking in? Just shoot that barrel. Every round of break in ammo wears it out a bit. The rifling has its sharpest edges when it's new anyway. Accuracy starts to degrade with the first shot fired. How much may be hard to tell depending on many things. Nobody every broke in a barrel until a few decades ago someone thought it would be a good idea. You'll get a dozen or more suggested processes to use. Pick one if that's what you feel is needed.
