  • David, from the Weatherby web site -
    .
    "We suggest a 20 shot break-in, utilizing two different factory loads (load 1 and load 2) to begin understanding desired barrel accuracy. If desired, after the break-in, begin experimental shooting with different factory loads as each barrel's accuracy is dependent on load and bullet combinations."
    .
    Our procedure is as follows:
    .
    Clean the barrel*
    Fire 3 shots (Load 1)
    Clean the barrel*
    Fire 3 shots (Load 2)
    Clean the barrel*
    Fire 3 shots (Load 1)
    Clean the barrel*
    Fire 3 shots (Load 2)
    Clean the barrel*
    Fire 3 shots (Load 1)
    Let Barrel Cool
    Fire 5 shots (Load 2)
    Clean the Barrel
    .
    Many of our Weatherby rifles get close to their accuracy potential during break-in but accuracy continues to improve with more shooting.
    .
    Stay safe & have a great day!

  • Hi David and welcome. It is recommended that you do. 5 round, clean bore, repeat for 5 sets of rounds. This should season your barrel. The next order of business is testing various loads to find the most accurate then stocking up. Cheers and stay safe!
