Drop in bore light for rifle

[garandman]

TO get a good inspection of a muzzleloading rifle, I wanted a drop in bore light. Reviews of everything out there, indicated the things sold had too yellow a light, and I really wanted a white light.

SO initially, I got one of these....

its a Streamlight Nano. Its less than 0.50" so it'll work for 50 cal and up. I took the latch off, but it was WAAAY too bright to see anything at all.

SO I dropped a 45-70 bullett (no case) in after, and it works great, to let you inspect the bore real well.

What are y'all doing to inspect the bore?

Check out O'Reilly's automotive stores. They sell are real skinny but very bright light for about $10.00. I bought one and it is great. Has a loop at the top for a string.

I also use an Oriely's light.They are well worth the money. Also I use the cheap "lighted bober"for simple cleaning checks. :idunno:
