Read your patches and Sbots

If you are buying a new rifle, the filings will still be on the riflings from where they were cut, and if you use a bore scope, the riflings will look like a hack saw blade.
I have seen this and usually my first indication, is when I run a cleaning patch down the bore. On new rifles, I always read the patch or sabot. You will clearly see cuts as oppose to burning. I then run a patched round ball up and down the bore to smooth out. Most times, I just shoot and keep reading the patch. .....

Were they made in this country or imports?
Will not single them out but have only seen this on imports and it is not a big problem. ...

Be Safe !!!
