Bore Scope?
« on: November 15, 2012, 06:43:12 PM »
I saw an interesting gadget the other day at Costco.  It was an inspection camera with the looking end at the end of what looked like a steel braided tube.  It had a hand held display of sorts. 

It was in the automotive section.  And my first thought was I wonder if it would work as a bore scope as it was only $149.00 (and cheap) compared with dedicated bore scopes.

Anyone else see this?  Thoughts?

I was looking at that too..  ;D   It looks a little large to fit all the way in the barrel, but it might be able to view the chamber and maybe the throat area in a .308 or larger size chamber.  The real deal boros are sooo expensive!   :o
