[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1020182, member: 2736"] To the original Poster; I really don't need to know who the barrel maker is, because I already have a great barrel maker and I am sure others do also. But the 100 rounds concerns me because if the barrel has not started improvement by 15 or 20 rounds it is bad and should be discarded or excepted as a poor choice. The thing to do is start a normal brake in on your barrel and it should tell you what you need to do after 10 rounds. I don't know anyone that could last 100 rounds of brake in, so maybe he just wants you to do as good as you can before you give up and start to enjoy your rifle. The 308 will last thousands of rounds so a good brake in will be good. on cartridges that are bad on barrels limited brake in is recommended (7 to 12 rounds). You already have the barrel, so make the best of it and hope he is wrong about needing 100 rounds of brake in. Good luck J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
