[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 404941, member: 15636"] Had the chance to use this new-to-me endoscope/borescope on the bore of a muzzleloading 65-caliber flintlock smoothbore that I bought in a [i]divorce [/i]sale. The previous owner was a reenactor - not a shooter or hunter like I am - and I imagine he fired many a blank round then let it sit fire or tent-side without an adequate cleaning :evil: . The breech area is 1-3/8" thick where the firing takes place, for a 65-cal bore, so I'm not worried about any strength issues. Ah well, it shoots great - as in REALLY great (I tied a percussion rifle shooter for 1st place at last week's shoot), so I'm just going to smooth out the corrosion spots and ensure I keep her well cleaned and oiled (FYI, I use Birchwood Casey's "Barricade" protectant in my firearm bores and on the metal, with Ballistol on the wood).
