Load development during barrel break in

Here is little article from Sierra regarding the velocity increase in new barrels. The only exception for me being the amount of rounds fired. Although, I have a Krieger that did this at about 120 rounds, most of my barrels stabilized at around 75. Let's just say that this happens to enough guys somewhere between 0-200 rounds that it's definitely something to watch for.

Here's another interesting discussion about it.
