[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 2821025, member: 74061"] Lots of good advice here I’ll add my 2-cents. It’s a good idea to break the rifle in with factory ammo but if you plan on reusing the brass, get the good stuff. Depending on how much you plan to shoot the rifle, It would also be a good idea to buy 5 to 10 boxes of the same lot. Unless it’s just an awesome out of the box shooter with a premium lapped barrel. I’d go with inexpensive bullets and primer combos till you get at least 200 rounds on the barrel. Then begin your load development. I was ready to sell my new 6 arc bolt gun because of wild flyers and extremely bad cold bore shots often over an inch away from the rest of the group. It didn't settle down till I had almost 400 rounds through it. It’s a dependable tack driver now I’m taking it to it‘s first match next Saturday…wish me luck [/QUOTE]
