    I was going through some stuff that I got when my dad passed away and I found a brand new Compass Lake complete upper in a box, with the Krieger barrel on it. The manual says swab the barrel after every 20 rounds with JB bore paste to polish it during break in. The internet gives conflicting results, break in no break in. I'm thinking about building this up and getting back into service rifle competitions. I would like to know from the people who have first hand experience either way polish or no polish.
    Thanks,
