Not to take over this thread, but what do you guys do to break in a new rifle?

When you've got enough rounds through it fast enough to make it smell like someone's been welding nearby, you're about there.

To truly break in a shotgun and remove that all to recognizable "New Gun Smell", one must baptize the new gun in a slough or other similar body of water AND get at least a teaspoon of dirt shoved in the barrel that one must use a chunk of cattail, stick, or other vegetable matter to clean out. Using a cleaning kit is CHEATING and will negate the aforementioned break in procedure. Congratulations on your new scatter gun!!!!

Did you notice cleaning becoming easier as you cleaned between shots? I do a "break-in" to a certain point. Clean, shot 5 rounds cleaning after each, shoot 10 cleaning after every 2, and shoot 10 cleaning after 5.
