Thanks for the info.
This will be the first rifle I've bothered to go through the break-in process as described in some of my literature, advice given and YT videos.
Typically I'd just take a rifle to the range, shoot about 200 +/- rounds and then do a medium to medium heavy clean and call it good for every 300
rounds or so. Been doing that way for years and haven't had any issues with any of my rifles.
Go to YT or any forum and if you ask 10 people if break-in is necessary, you'll get 12 different answers!!
The way my grandpa, my father, uncle and brothers have done it was to go and shoot it until it don't shoot straight no mo' that's
the time to clean it!!
