[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3218358, member: 5412"] Like my boresnakes. When I bought my first .243 WSSM upper in 2008, the barrel guy recommended 200 rounds to break it in. One snake with brownells bore cleaner after every third shot and then three swabs with a clean snake. Since Obama made office that year, you can see what ammo prices were and there was not brass at that time to reload. $2 a shot. I didn't see one iota of difference in my group size from beginning to end. Now I call BS on barrel break in process. Maybe a few rounds to swab out the machining burrs if there is any and roll on. CNC machining has made a revolution in machining practices and quality. Broke in a few barrels in my lifetime and none have needed a break in. All that being said, I still like my boresnakes. Makes the barrel shiny and clean. [/QUOTE]
