Hello All
My Remington 700 in 243 shoots poorly and finally decided to try and figure out why. It was purchased from a friend who got it new and did not shoot it much at all. I have only shot it enough to try and get it to group which I have never been able to do.(Different ammo and scopes made sure everything was tight etc.) Got a lyman borescope a couple of months ago a figured I would take a look.
Below is a link to the video of the bore. For reference this damage is located at 12 oclock. I just videoed the obvious damage and needed a little help deciphering what kind of damage this is and what might of caused it. I do recognize the checking that appears right before the rifling and from the research I have done appears somewhat normal. But the "gouges or what appears to me as major checks I would think would be anything but normal.
Thanks
