[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 2239361, member: 61747"] So recall I said that velocity usually increases when a barrel breaks in or settles in and the node still remains the same or similar? I decided to document every shot on this new barrel with my lab. I installed a new x caliber carbon barrel last week and ran 30 rounds through it. Didn't doing any break in cleaning. Got it home, cleaned carbon, zero copper. It shot an avg of 2855, sd 6, bug hole zero groups and .5 or better to 800. Didn't shoot past 800. Yesterday I shot another 50, so total of 80. Around 60 the barrel sped up from 2855 avg and settled in to 2895, rounds 70-80 had an sd of 7. 700, 800, 880 targets were showing solid groups in the .5 moa range. Didn't measure just eye balled, its close enough and good enough for me (off tripod, sitting, and little windy). [/QUOTE]
