i think im just going to get some remington 150 grain bullets for it.
break in? i have like 12 guns and ive never done any specific break in procedure with them. I just lube them properly and shoot it up until im tired.

I'm the same way. I just shoot till I'm out of ammo or tired. Some folks do a break in process for extreme accuracy reasons. Take a shot run a patch down the tube, take a shot run another patch. Repeat the process for 15rds then fire another ten rounds and run another patch. Rinse and repeat up to 50rds or so letting the barrel cool a bit after each handful of rounds. Not my procedure, just one I have seen mentioned many times on http://www.thehighroad.org" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and http://www.snipershide.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I shot my rifle today. its a real tack driver. at 50 yards the 4 rounds i shot made a hole about the size of a quarter. at 100 i was able to make about a 1 inch group. It took me about 15 rounds to sight in my scope perfectly.
