Depending on the string of course, most strings will settle in somewhere around 200 shots.
Now.....for the strings rubbing together and making noise!!! That is NOT normal. Stop shooting or drawing the bow immediately and get it to a professional for observation. I can only guess what is wrong, like maybe the string is not the correct length or your cam's bushings are shot or something like that!
Once again, stop and get it to a professional.

wright above the cable guard slide where the strings cross at...thats where the strings look and sound like they are rubbing...but when you take the cable guard off and pull it back and letoff there is no noise...i just wonder if the strings need to be broke in or loosen up...will this solve my problem...
