Here is something for those who don't use pressure testing equipment: After you get a barrel clean, velocity will usually stabilize by 5 firings. It takes 12-15 for pressure to stabilize.
Yes...velocity can be stable and pressure still having some significant swings.

If this is the case than when shooting for groups it would be best to shoot 12-15 fouling rounds because pressure causes velocity swings, and after 12-15 fouling rounds the rifle would settle down, or am I missing something?
