Good, cheap bore lights

Wood dowel piece of plastic mirror glues to the end and a bright flash light.

So what do you find is the best color to use? Red, green or yellow?? Thanks.

green, red doesn't shine for my longest barrels and yellow isn't as bright as the green

I've used white lighted arrow nocks for many years but they are getting harder to find and pretty expensive. Have tried other colors but never happy with them so these just may be a better idea.

Although hard to find ... I got a white one once ... as I use those too.

I've looked everywhere for a white one but that must be a color they no longer make.

Anything BUT a tight fitting ball bearing! Had 2 come into shop. required unbreeching. One left so long it rusted tight!!

I do a lot of slip bobber fishing for Walleyes and have not seen a white light for years. I don't know for sure but think the colored ones are better for after dark. You don't get the glare off the water with the colored ones like the white light. Like why the military uses colored lenses for flashlights. May be why they fell out of favor. At least in this state. And slip bobber fishing is a big deal here.

maybe an inch long

Had my bores were so bad! Need to get a .70 caliber brush!

Yeah great.

I got one stuck in what must be a patent breach.

It won't shoot out with caps.

Nice! And cheaper than the lighted archery nocks I've been using.

Those work so well. (In a clean shop)

Unfortunately I believe these are "flashers" and not a solid white light.

Thanks for the correction.

Boriscopes have actually gotten really cheap. I picked up a 16-ft one for under $30 on Amazon the other day for exploring some suspicious holes in my yard. Easily fits down the muzzle, and it even came with it at 45° mirror attachment so you can see sideways from the lens. The cheaper ones mostly attach to your cell phone as the screen, but if you're willing to spend a little extra money, they come with a dedicated screen. I've taped mine to a piece of solid 10 AWG wire to be able to bend it in the exact direction I want it to go, it made a huge difference in controlling what I can see.

It's one of those tools that you buy, and then you find a ton of things to use it for. I've used it to find a cave system near my house, found some rotted wood inside my home, checked bores, dryer ducts and air vents.
