Funny to check out the forum and see this topic. I literally just done this today. Spent a few hours sighting in and breaking in the barrel. I have done this for new rifles for many years now. As I told my wife this morning some people think there is nothing to this and others swear by it and that it makes a difference. When I come across a new rifle that I like and plan to keep I break in the barrel. if theres nothing to it then I've lost nothing. I enjoy shooting.and if there is something to it then I gained all I could by doing it and it gives me peace of mind knowing I done it. I used factory rounds to break in and sight in with. The last 3 factory sight in shots were under and inch. So my last 3 shots of the day I used a load I had already established in other 300 win mags. The result was a 3 shot group of .736" I was tickled and pleased with it.
