5 weeks ago a drop off my rifle to a local, highly recommended, reputable, LRH sponsor Smith to do a bedding job and bottom metal inlet. I got the rifle back last week. I'm in the shop mounting my scope and go to bore sight(look down the barrel and through the scope method). I can't see a darn thing through the barrel, I grab a flashlight and still nothing... odd. So, I run a cleaning rod through it and push out a pinch of metal shavings. The barrel is a proof carbon fiber, SS if I'm not mistaken, the shavings are magnetic so I don't think it's my rifling. WTH!!
I follow it up with a dozen wet patches that are really dirty on a barrel that has only been test fired for function.
Any thoughts on what might cause this so I can have a meaningful conversation with my smith?
I'm thinking they need to bore scope this thing on the house just to see for sure, thoughts?
