My first 'precision' rifle

[dan belisle]

How should I go about breaking in the barrel? I usually just clean with a patchworm untill they come out clean.

Shoot and clean, in various numbers. The traditional method is shoot one and clean for 10 rounds, shoot two and clean for twenty rounds, shoout five and clean for twenty rounds, shoot ten and clean for 50 rounds. You've now fired 100 rounds, and your barrel is broken in. Or just clean it once (before you fire it) and then shoot it 100 times. Either/or. - dan
