[QUOTE="MSLRHunter, post: 702020, member: 20566"] I just got my new custom 280AI back from my gunsmith, Dixie Precision Rifles. It has a 24" Brux #5 barrel on it. I have decided to follow the recommend break-in procedure that Brux endorses. It involves shoot 1 shot then clean for 5 times. Then shoot 3 shot groups and clean 3-5 times, then 5 shot groups, etc. I am on the 1 shot and clean cycle now. After the 1st shot it took 55 patches with bore tec eliminator to get perfectly clean. After the 2nd shot it took 18 patches, after the 3rd shot it took 15 patches, and after the 4th shot it took 12. You guys that have done break-in, was it similar to this? How easy is it to clean your barrel after it was broken in? I'll get some pictures of the rig posted this week, just got a new nightforce for it that is not even mounted yet. [/QUOTE]
