[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 341676, member: 3733"] John that is a very valid statment. A bone clean barrel usually needs a few fouling rounds to settle down. But this does not really apply to the topic at hand. Most competitive shooters do some form of barrel brake in and none that I know bring a fresh tube to a match. When I prepare for an f-class match I start with a clean barrel and then fire 3-4 fouling shots before the match. I may run up to 100 rounds thru that barrel during the course of the day and if the match is a two day I will clean again that night. I did try to do a two day match with that gun without cleaning between days and at about the 140-150 round mark, on the second day, the accuracy really started to suffer. This was with a 243AI.
