RE: Badger barrel break in procedure
After about 150 or so shots down the tube, the Browning (Badger) barrel is starting to come around.

I started out shooting 2 shots, clean, three shots, clean, 5 shots, clean (YAWN), etc. No tight spots, no loose ones. My starting loads were the same as my last ones, and as time has gone on, the groups are shrinking, a little at a time. Five inch groups at 200 are now 2" groups .Next week I will move the targets out to 400, 500 and beyond. Its comin' around, just in time to have some fun at the Quigley.

Jim
That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!
