Correct way to break in a barrel?
Shoot 50-60 rounds of affordable non-corrosive brass. Elaborate break in rituals have not been demonstrated to have significant affects on accuracy. Clean if you have any problems but only use light solvents (hoppes 9), a bore snake, and then pass a dry patch through until it comes back out dry (to avoid hydrolic denting). You want you maintain a copper equilibrium (new rounds leave behind only marginally more than they push out, creating a protective layer and preventing further wear to the brittle exposed layer of metal), then do as little to change your internal ballistics as possible. DO NOT USE ABRASIVES. They will decrease your barrel life and invalidate any range data you've collected.
Not my advice, but summarized from here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...uhvhFzp9Wxo2X- If this guy can put a first round hit on a beer can at over a mile, I'm listening to his advice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You'll need the following items;
1) A black beeswax candle 2) The hair of a virgin, born on a full moon 3) A live chicken with the purest white feathers 4) Three bullets made from the copper pennies laid upon the eyes of an executed murderer When you have these items, we will begin the break in ritual. Do no speak to a red headed woman until you have the items and do not change your left sock.

I tried that beeswax and virgin hair thing. When we were all done she wouldn't STFU. I don't recommend but to each their own...
This email is directly off the Noveske site regarding brake in...

Chrome lined barrel break-in procedure as follows:
Shoot it. When the accuracy goes south, clean it.

Lots of funny guys here. It cannot hurt to do a simple break in procedure. Fire a couple rounds, run a patch, fire a few more and repeat a few times and never ever use Hoppes 9.

Easy Big Guy. A Noveske CHF is nothing like a Bartlein, Hawk Hill, Brux Etc. T-Rex is a hell of a shooter. OP shoot that thing and stop bowing to the temple of J. Noveske. They are just a rifle Co., and a un-innovateive shell at that. TK. |

I want to be T-Rex when I grow up (: Yeah I didn't suggest anything that I would do differently though in a cheap barrel. What's wrong with that? If you clean it out thoroughly?

Would copper pennies that were smashed on the railroad tracks where a dead gang member was murdered near by count?

Clean it to make sure there is no stuff left over from the manufacturing process and then as others said, shoot the hell out of it till the accuracy diminishes then clean again.

Correct me if I am wrong, but you do not need to break in a CHF barrel due to the fact that the bore is molded and hammered into shape. You only need to break in a barrel if it is cut-rifled since cutting the bore into shape will leave microscopic imperfections in the metal which will initially affect accuracy until it is "broken in".
So in conclusion, you don't need to do anything. Just shoot away brother. |

Smash it with a sledge hammer or run it over with a tank. You want to break it in, right?

*keeping in mind a new barrel needs a new bolt. No old bolt on new barrel. Could cause head space problems. If it's a new complete upper it's the same regimen except add the cam pin channel/cam pin so that wears in too.

Kreiger knows more about barrels than probably any company in the world (or at least tied with a few). Take it from them: https://kriegerbarrels.com/faq#breakin

My CHF chrome-lined barrel came accurate out of the box. Didn't need to break anything in but then again, I have a carbine barrel not a designated marksman or sniper rifle barrel.

While I would take additional steps to break in a stainless steel barrel, I don't think a chrome-lined barrel requires anything special. I would just shoot brass cased ammo for the first several hundred rounds. Noveske uses a thicker chrome lining so it will be even more durable.

I haven't been here as long as others, but why do people ask questions here when google will provide the answers they seek?
Is it just a case of I don't like what I'm hearing so I'm going to keep asking until I get the answer I want?

I do not see anyone mention using a drill with a copper brush tip to help clean the barrel while eating bacon and holding a unicorn plush. If you are not doing that, you are doing it wrong.
