1shot1kill and other responders,

I took your advice and ran about a 100 passes of JB compound through the bore. The scratches all but disappeared. The only way you can see them now is if your looking for them and shine the bore light at just the right angle.

They were fairly superficial to begin with I guess.

Went and fired it for the first time yesterday. As best I can tell the accuracy isn't really affected by anything besides my mediocre shooting skills.

Thanks to you and all of the other forum members who were kind and thoughtful enough to take the time to offer their opinions and helpful advice.
It's much appreciated!
