Just picked up my Marlin 925 in .22lr, planning on taking it shooting tomorrow. This is my first rifle, so I have a quick question. Do I need to break in the barrel? If so can someone point me in the direction where I could find that process? Thanks to all of ya.
Even heard that 22 barrel will basically never wear out....
I like to break in barrels of new .22s with copper wash stuff. I put 500 rds. through a new barrel. Stuff like the Federal bulk stuff is good for this. It helps to burnish the bore and smooth things. Then I start looking at different ammo to see what it likes. Federal 711B shoots well in just about everything.
