[QUOTE="waveslayer, post: 3034217, member: 46202"] It's all good to disagree, but there is no major evidence of it doing anything to a premium barrel. Of course if you get your mass produced rifles, you never know what you were going to get, kind of like a CA these days. Yes Tubbs does this, etc... again it's a different level, are we talking about Bench shooting or long range hunting? Again, I'll reference what I said earlier, if it's a shooter it's a shooter, not because you broke it in. Cleaning it might be easier, but again is that because you have a good quality barrel to begin with or do you have a standard barrel... Once you clean it do you have to foul it out again to get it to perform? You shouldn't have to. Even Frank, at Barlein, isn't convinced that Breaking in a barrel does anything. How often are you guys cleaning your barrels? I don't touch it until, the groups open up on it. As for the speeding up, that's why an OCW test has a leg up on the old Ladder test you can test your loads at different velocities etc. that's not breaking in a barrel. If that were the case then all my barrels have been crud.... [/QUOTE]
