3 am in the morning and ran across your post while doing a search for barrel break-in procedeure and seen nobody came to your rescue.I will answer the best I can.I have shot a bunch in my 60 years and tried all sorts of break-in procedeures that have been written and talked about.I have even gone without breaking in a barrel just because I just wanted to shoot and forget all that lengthy break-in stuff,thinking that I'll just clean it good later.And you know what,never could tell any difference as far as accuracy.But I sure noticed an increase in my cleaning supplies.Does barrel break-in help to reduce the cross marks on the throat,probably,but then again,I think normal shooting and a good follow-up cleaning will do the same as well.That's a good way of confuseing you and kinda saying,that I am not sure how I stand on it.But at least,I opened the door back up for you so maybe somebody else can give their thoughts.
