New Barrel Break-in (with Tuner) -- 6mm Dasher

[ISS]

Pete,

RE break in shots... When I talked with Tony Boyer at the Super Shoot he told me he would NOT EVER shoot a match with a new barrel, or even load test until it had 20 rounds break in.
I guess these days things are different, eh?

Thinking back to sitting with Tony and Ed Shilen at the Super Shoot, I remember Tony saying he brought about six barrels each for LV and HV. Some for 100yds, others for 200yds.
When I asked why, he tells me they each needed a 5-shot group to see which barrel(s) wanted to win the SS that summer.
And Skip Otto just sat there, quiet for once.
