[QUOTE="Teri Anne, post: 2320184, member: 118816"] Gee, I thought that we were primarily talking about hunting rifles here. Everyone seems to be so intent on that first cold barrel hit, then why do you have a problem with a barrel that probably is capable of that but doesn't like to keep it's accuracy over 25 rounds fired, that is unless you are too lazy to take the time to take care of your rifle and keep it clean so it will shoot the way you want it too. Many rifles take 50 to over 100 shots to break in a barrel, keep from having issues with Copper fouling until the lands are burnished in. Copper (or lead) fouling will destroy the accuracy of any barrel in short order. Wake up and smell the roses and take care of what you want to take care of you. :( [/QUOTE]
