Is there anyone out there with a bore scope in the Wichita, KS area that would be willing to let me take a look down the barrel of my 308 with it?

I am debating the need for a new barrel and would like to have a look first. I am considering buying a bore scope but that would impact my barrel fund.

Thanks,

Todd
 
It quit shooting. That is what prompted me to want to look at it. I tried chasing the lands (I knew there was erosion because my OAL to the lands changed) but I was not able to recover the previous accuracy. The final straw was when I tried some 175 SMK's (I have been shooting 180's). I could not find a load that was even reasonable and realized that I had now spent a third of the cost of a new barrel trying to make this one shoot.

I just finished installing my new Shilen barrel :)
