I break in a barrel only after deep meditation .
Clean - meditate - shoot - meditate repeat , ten shots takes five days .
Give it a good cleaning and shoot it all the info. out there doesn't proves any process means anything .
After a day of shooting clean it .
If anybody read the benchrest guys story of shooting in the concrete plant with absolutely NO WIND you should come to the conclusion that we/ shooters get way too wrapped up in way too many details that don't matter .
A guy here or elsewhere online bought a CVA 33-30 break barrel and wanted recommdations on breaking in the barrel - benchrest style - got all kinds of good answers .
