Ok how does one go about doing this?
Swab barrel after every shot.
wait wut
If they indeed use "SAW blanks" for AR barrels, then by definition they aren't mil spec.Well, Noveske uses barrels that are way over spec for their purpose, cut from SAW blanks and double chrome-lined.
If it's chrome lined, then don't worry about it.
Barrel 'break-in' is only helpful with non chrome-lined barrels.
Who said anything about them being milspec?If they indeed use "SAW blanks" for AR barrels, then by definition they aren't mil spec.
Please reread post 13, it answers your question.Who said anything about them being milspec?
I think this topic touches 2 subjects; barrel break in and rifle component break in. For both I defer to the 1st response, followed by a good breakdown, scrubbing and application of quality lube.
Since you said please.Please reread post 13, it answers your question.
SAW barrels are 4140, not to specification for M4 barrels which are required to be constructed from 4150 CMV. Therefore, SAW barrels are not "over spec" as stated in post #13, nor are those made by Noveske if they indeed use SAW blanks. By definition, for the barrel to be "in spec" it would be 4150 with the presence of vanadium.
As stated, post #13.
I see no mention of "mil", only that the poster claims that Noveske's barrels are engineered more than a typical AR. Noveske's main claim is the hammer forging process and extra thick chrome layer. They are not however cut from 249 stock, just made similarly. http://noveskerifleworks.com/cgi-bin/imcart/display.cgi?cat=106Well, Noveske uses barrels that are way over spec for their purpose, cut from SAW blanks and double chrome-lined.
Splitting hairs. Let us assume that the term "spec" used in a discussion about the AR15 is short hand for military specification, which it more often than not is. You know that, I know that. "Mil", while not used, is implied when "over spec" is.Since you said please.

Not sure what rifle the OP has, but trying to stay okn topic, Noveske does not have a recommended break in and says there is no benefit to one
Not beating anything. Some folks like accurate info, or "better than half-truth".Apparently you're the one who wants to keep beating it to death.
