How do I break in a new rifle using moly bullets?

I always break in a rifle using the least inexpensive Sierra, Hornady or Speer bullets I can find. I do the "shoot, clean, shoot, clean method". I would not use moly until barrel burnishes in -- the copper fouling lightens up.

Then switch to moly, if you want.

You don't. I've been told by qualified gunsmiths that you have to shoot non-coated bullets for breakin work.
