Markets

Shooters

Shooters improve their accuracy by using a borescope application that assists in inspecting bores of new rifles before firing to locate copper, carbon, and lead fouling after firing, and to discover defects in used firearms before they are purchased. When a favorite rifle quits shooting, the Hawkeye is used to search for the cause. Often, fouling is the problem.
