RE: new omega
Not sure it was mentioned but here goes; Your Omega is going to be a sabot/bullet shooter and they will recommend that, but to break in the barrel if there is any machining roughness it might be better to shoot some solid lead bullets which will smooth out the barrel faster. The plastic on the sabots does not do a very good job of polishing the barrel. I had to use some JB bore paste on my Stainless Omega to get the barrel smooth enough to load easily. I did not have the time to shoot a lot of solid lead so I did it the other way. The stuff that Dave gave you (above)is priceless so follow what he told you and what your book says. Good luck.
