[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 1312455, member: 17844"] A Sako has a hammer forged barrel so generally they are smoother than say a button rifled barrel . So run in less required on average . Keep in mind that Good morning Beretta was a pistol person not Good Morning Sako in Finland kind of person. So advice will vary . Personally I like to run in where I do that extra cleaning and scrubbing between rounds just to make sure any garbage is taken out before it all gets hammered into the bore surface . A bit of caution can't hurt . I push not so tight dry patches through a new cleaned barrel and see if any lint gets hung up anywhere inside the bore . I have even used cotton wool to see if any gets hung up . This gives me an idea how smooth it is . Then I decide how much run in I will do. [/QUOTE]
