breaking in a barrel

[Evan03]

some rifles like being fouled alittle to improve groups printed on paper. atleast thats what they say.

i realy dont like cleaning that often or dureing break in so i pretty much do it as little as posible.


i do however each time im testing new loads ill scrub out the bore. even though i do this it doesnt makes since to me. im usualy pushn the same bullets just difrent powder combos.

when im ready to start dropn new loads ill prop the rifle up muzzle into rag and pump it full of foaming bore cleaner and leave it for 20-30minutes. by then ive turned out the loads i want to test then i scrub out the bore and go test them.

the more i think about this doesnt make since. shouldnt i want to test loads through barrel they way i shoot it. maybe ill not clean it for the next batch of loads and see what i see if anything.
