[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 115547, member: 2011"] Had the barrel removed from a REM factory 338 Win. Got to messing around with the smith's bore scope. Wow! Approximately 400 rounds down the barrel. It was shooting real well. On the order of 1/4 MOA @ 100 and 200 yds. Observations: 1) Wipe Out really works. Bore was completely non copper. 2) Where the rifling/bore was smooth it was really smooth. 3)Cracking at the throat was just beginning. 4) There were rough spots, chips/gouges, all over the place. Random locations. BTW, no such stuff in my Lilja, it's smoother than a new born baby's butt... 5) one groove had a more than readily visible groove/scratch the complete length of the rifling. I've been looking for a reason that I couldn't get really good ESs and SDs with any load which is why groups were so small @ 200 but vertical stringing was enough @ 800 that it was just luck to hit the steel yote. Wonder if roughness was a factor. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
