You need to be cleaning the barrel every few shots during the break-in period. Taking it out for the first time and shooting 20 rounds is not the best for your barrel.
Those remind me of my chip shots!!!

Changing your screen name to Lucas McCain. :) Good shooting. Grouping still good for a drop of the target recipient.. especially a .223 round. Don't know much about the Grendel round. I have seen the "real" end results of .223 rounds on people up close and personal. Not pretty.
Thank you ver much
Nah I have to aim to hit anything!!

Out here there is a shortage of powder, primers and bullets.
Same here I just made a 160 mile round trip today to buy powder I bought bullets and primers a while back.
The supplier only had 3# in the store.
Beside that the shipping is almost as much or more than the product with the Hazmat regs.

I thank you for your concern and advice.
I just checked the mfg web page to refresh my memory:
They don't believe you need to break in their barrels.
But to appease customers they do have a procedure.
However I will clean my barrel after every session.
