[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1020508, member: 2736"] No need to apologize !!! You ask a good question and you should get a good answer. Lots of questions will have many different opinions and you just have to decide which to use. Opinions are based on different experiences so opinions may vary. I for one believe in barrel brake in because I have tried both ways and found that accuracy is best with a clean barrel. It can be good with a fouled barrel but not as good as a clean one. also velocity is better because copper in a barrel causes friction and friction lowers velocity. I know this is not a bench rest site but bench rest shooters would never shoot a barrel with copper fouling and expect to win a match. so why not try to find out the potential of a rifle instead of settling for 1/2 MOA groups when it could potentially shoot 1/10th MOA. This is a very good site to get good information (Most of the time) And you will find good answers from experienced people. and after a while you will find out who they are. Stick with this site and you wont be disappointed. I have been on other sites that everyone with over 10 min. experience was an expert. No one is an expert on everything. I have been shooting/competing for over 50 years and I learn something every day if I am lucky. Just trying to help, End of sermon PS: The reason I don't need to know who the barrel maker is, is because I see no point in slandering a guy without first hand information. If his product is not good he wont last long if it is he will have a good future in long range shooting. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
