Welcome aboard!
We're looking forward to seeing how she shoots for you at the range and in the field!

That is where you start with a clean barrel, shoot 1 round, disasemble and clean the barrel until black is just about gone. I repeat this about 5 times. Them do 3 shots and the same cleaning process. This process is also known as breaking in the barrel

Beautiful rifle and welcome aboard.
Did you bed the barrel into the upper by any chance?
