[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 2105712, member: 101859"] The same methods I use for my BR rifles, I use for my LR hunting and ELR stuff. No break in, just shoot and clean as normal. It will take 100-150 round for the barrel to settle in no matter what you do. Clean with Montana extreme copper killer. Its the best carbon solvent I have ever used. They just advertise it for copper, which it works well on too. It will not harm a barrel. 2 wet patches, 10 strokes with a bronze brush, repeat until clean. Usually only 2 or 3 times. Clean every 50 rounds or so. A little less or more is fine, but don't go hundreds. Replace brush often, it has to fit snug. Finish with one patch wet with Montana extreme bore oil, follow with 2 dry patches with the bore guide removed. Then swab chamber with a shotgun patch over a .410 bore mop. Simple. [/QUOTE]
