Dbo,
I will have to disagree with not breaking the barrel in, even one with a chrome bore. The chrome is about twice as hard as the rest of the barrel, but the bullet & the hot gasses will have some effect on the bore and the throat. I have a 16" Bushmaster fluted HBAR with a chrome bore that showed definate improvement over the break in period. It will group 0.9" @100yds. The 24" Bushy Varminter barrel, which does not have a chrome bore, has grouped 0.28" @100yds after the same labor intensive break in. 5-1s (clean after each round), 5-2s (clean after each 2 rounds), 5-3s, 5-4s, 5-5s. The only barrel I have that did not show a significant improvement during break in is a Krieger SS hand lapped barrel. It shot 0.38 from the get-go and required practically no break in. It is the easiest barrel I have ever owned to clean. You get what you pay for with a premium barrel.
I have used Wolf and Winchester white box to break in different barrels. Both will work, but it is a whole lot easier to use the cleaner burning Winchester ammo IMHO.
Get a good cleaning rod guide , use a good coated 1 pc. rod, always wipe the rod clean before each use, and clean the bore down to bare metal after each shot or group. Most barrels are ruined thru improper cleaning techniques. Shoot groups as you go using match ammo and see if you are making a difference.
HTH,
Carey
