[QUOTE="Scott E Ames, post: 1964583, member: 60439"] Welcome to the forum from OK. You have the perfect ammo to "break in" your barrel. During the first 60-100 rounds you may notice the character and speed of you barrel may change as it is shot. If you are lucky the cheap ammo will shoot well but if not you have the option of premium ammo for your chosen cartridge. If you don't belong to a gun club that is a great place to start. Getting help from experienced shooters is always better than reading about it. My thoughts if your rifle doesn't have one would be to start off adding a muzzle brake. The 338 Lapua can be punishing when shot off of a bench. Don't want to develop a flinch needlessly. [/QUOTE]
