I am going to follow a barrel break-in procedure soon for my new Model 10 Predator Hunter. Essentially firing a limited number of rounds, cleaning the barrel between shots. I have read several different procedures but most are essentially the same just changing the time between firing or the number of rounds fired between cleaning. The procedures generally advise to clean the barrel for copper residue using a copper solvent. What, if anything, should I consider doing different if I will be shooting the Hornady moly coated V-Max bullets?

Dont wory about break in just shoot it, but I would shoot about 100 rounds of coper bullets before going to moly. Give it a good cleaning before you switch, and there you go.
