[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1344788, member: 2736"] I know it can improve some rifles, But after seeing a barrel fire lapped with a bore scope I personally would never do it because It laps the throat more than the muzzle. and the throat is the first place to wear out under normal shooting. Seeing what I did with the bore scope indicates it will reduce the accurate life of a barrel. If you don't have access to a competent smith, and you have a terrible barrel that is only shot a few times a year, then as a last resort it could be used. The other option is simply to clean often and let the bullet lap it over time. After several hundred rounds with frequent cleaning it will be much better. (Not as good as a good and proper lapping but better than it was in the beginning). The reason for cleaning often, is to allow the bullet to work on the machine marks without the protection of the fouling(Copper). J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
