Skinny,
In my humble opinion, unless you are an Olympic hopeful, just go shoot your gun and clean as usual thereafter. All my military arms had been shot before I owned them and most of my commercial scoped arms were bought used so any "break-in procedure" is a moot point now.
Regardless how you break-in your gun, most rifles will shoot better than their owners can hold, so why do the "one shot-clean, one shot-clean" unless it just gives you inner peace. If you do not have a bench on your deer stand, there is not a hoot in hell's worth of difference between an .5" and a 1.5" rifle shot offhand.
