Howa 20" Break-in
#3
Let the barrel tell you what it needs. My process is to shoot one and clean. If it feels smooth on the rod I’ll move on to 3 shots. When cleaning after 3 I look at the copper fowling. If there is a lot I get it clean and repeat. When I am not getting a lot of copper on cleaning I move on to 5. Wash rinse repeat.

I have had guns go 1, 3, 5, 10 without any repeating. I have also had guns never want to leave 3. Those were mostly cheap guns years ago. Most do a lot better these days.
