Apologies for the slight derail.
Not really. "Break in" is what some do like worshipping pig blood cleaning after each round for 50 rounds or so. Shooting a barrel is best or hand lapping. Barrels usually shoot in meaning the shoot their very best groups say in the barrels life after 500 rounds but before 2000 rounds. Just like like the cylinders in an engine, they seal best after the first 3000 miles or so. Doesn't mean you need to worship a goat over them and change oil every 100 miles.
