[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 1384338, member: 40852"] I would separate the break in process and load development process. When doing break in go by what the cleaning patches are telling you. What we're trying to do with break in is to burnish the frebore and leade area of the chamber. This is because when the chamber was cut the reamer was cutting metal away perpendicular to the bore. I've never had to fire 50 rounds to break in a barrel. It's usually been more like 25 rounds. Then when you start load development you'll have some fire formed brass which improves accuracy. [/QUOTE]
