[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 2129321, member: 13732"] Spend 50$ on a teslong bore scope, plugs into your phone. They're fantastic. I love mine. It has turned me into a barrel snob tho. Ever chamber job I get back from a smith, I carefully inspect the lands, shape of em, how symmetrical they are around the entire radius, inspect all the crowning work. Sometimes I've been greatly disappointed, before I call a smith out, I shoot it, and if it doesn't shoot like I'd expect, that's when I talk to the smith. I also realized, when I thought I had a barrel clean, I never really did. It's easy to get all the carbon out, copper is even still in there when my botetech c4 isn't turning blue anymore. It's a tool to inspect, but don't let it rule how you look at the barrel, use it as a gauge. [/QUOTE]
