Getting a new barrel from Pac-Nor and was looking at their break-in sheet. The range I go to doesn't allow cleaning while on a lane so I take an hour to shoot maybe 10 rounds to sight in take it home and clean then off to Alabama and hunting. While there last year I made 4 shots and went home to clean and put rifle in safe for next year.
How much will that affect the barrel and in time with the few shots I take at a time will the barrel slowly be broken in ?
Right now I have a cz557 in 6.5CM that has less than 20 rounds fired , a Savage axis II 6.5 CM with no rounds fired and will be getting the cz527 back around Dec. with zero rounds thru it. My plan is 1 rifle for hunting and 1 for backup and rotate each year unless I like that 527 too much. The Savage was going to be backup but now probably will go to a great grandchild (coming this year) if they follow their father into the field. It's a compact youth model
So will be rifles be affected by no formal break-in
Thanks
