Hello everyone, I am in a bit of a quandary and looking for some assistance.
I have a Sako TRG 22 that I recently obtained (with hopes to make it to the modified F-Class shoots sometime soon) and I have come across so many different opinions that I am a bit unsure about breaking in the barrel.
I have found recommendations that run from (LWRC and others) no break in is necessary, to (GAP) 1 - 5 round strings, to others who recommend 20 - 50 rounds. I have never done a break in process to any weapon that I have ever owned and never had a problem, but given how long it took me to obtain this rifle I don't wish to mess anything up.
I'm looking for anyone with experience (Mr. Shell) with barrel break in, good or bad. I can't seem to find anything directly from Sako about it and the manual doesn't address it.
Thanks.
