Can anybody recommend the best velocity and bullet BHN for breaking-in the barrel when the lapping procedure is complete? I'm following the break-in recommended in the Beartooth Technical Guide but see no mention of these two specifics. I hope to wrap this project up this weekend if the weather agrees. I will have a hunter out and can do this while I wait.

Ranch Dog,
Velocity in break-in isn't a big factor, shoot whatever type ammo you plan on giving a steady diet of through the gun. If you plan on shooting cast, then use that to break it in. Full snort loads are fine for this process.
Let us know your results!
God Bless,
