Thread: Brand new 7mm08 Browning X-Bolt

I break in all my bolt action rifle barrels more as a piece mind as my very first new guns the mini 14 and mini 30 I just shot them and never hardly cleaned them shot 2"-3" groups.

What optics you putting on it and are you going to chop and suppress it?

I got a Zeiss 4-12. The best my budget could reach to. Never had a scope worth more than 100 before.

Thanks for the input, advice and support. I'll break it in properly. And will dismantle and seal tomorrow.

When I put it back together should I leave a slick of gun grease on the underside of the barrel to protect it?
