Re: DPMS LR308 Warm Up?
for a warm up I would go with Privi for a break-in since it is the one of the cheapest out there for 168 and 175 GR. Not as accurate but works well for a break-in of the barrel then you can go to Federal GMM.

GOOD GRIEF, NO...NOT THAT!!!! You might warp the barrel!!
Seriously...just shoot it! No break-in required for that barrel...no sense wasting good ammo and barrel life on break-in. Go get some of your preferred fodder and get to shooting.

This should be a sticky.
Barrel break-in was invented to sell barrels.

Re: DPMS LR308 Warm Up?
I have tried going through the whole break in process and just shooting them with no break in. I can't tell it makes a bit of difference one way or the other. Shoot it and forget it.
