    Shoot good ammo through it - as much as you can afford.

    None needed. If you wanted to, you could polish the chamber, but that is about it.

    That is generally for SS barrels.

    Exactly what he said. Also clean it after every use.

    Is there a military procedure?

    Wipe out any oil/grease/packing lube that came in the gun and shoot.

    ETA: This isn't a military procedure, just THE procedure. Seriously, there is nothing to do unless you bought a SS match barrel.
