[QUOTE="Starlite, post: 2089831, member: 112246"] I just finished another inspection with the new borescope. This borescope was a disappointment WRT giving me what I wanted (detailed pictures). However, it confirmed where the issue is. For whatever reason I can’t email these photos to my iPhone and thus can’t post. I’ll work on that though. The carbon issue actually might be in two regions. First (and most common area from my readings) and most prominent area is just at the leading edge of the free bore ( right after the neck of brass ) the second area seems to be in the chamber. Not sure on this area but it’s not smooth looking. This latter area is very troubling to me. How could this happen? I went back to look at the LabRadar data. It seems like there might have been some sort of misfire or neck tension issue. On one load development string, there were 4 of 10 that had significant decrease in velocity. I’ve had variations in velocity and at times sever change so I never gave this a second thought. I remember looking at the brass as I always do but more this time as it was new alpha brass with SRP. In a new rifle. Other then a little carbon sooty neck (much the same as always with other rifles) all seemed normal. later I’ll post a photo and name of the borescope so that you all won’t buy it. It’s a nice unit just can’t focus at minimal distance. Which it said it would. [/QUOTE]
