the bore looks similar in quality to "mirror" in respect
to condition except that it is not shiny. Has a dull appearance to it.
This is invariably due to lack of timely cleaning after the rifle has
been fired with corrosive primed ammunition. Bore has kind of a
sand blasted appearance.
bore
A musket is smooth bored, like a shotgun's bore. A rifle has rifling inside the bore (grooves).
The bore is rifled so as to put a spin on the bullet. This spinning gives a greater accuracy to the bullet, especially over that of a smooth bore.
Almost any Combination BB & Pellet rifle is smooth bore. BB rifles usually are Smoothe bore. The Crosman model 760 is such a rifle and can be purchased at most sportingood stores. Look at the packaging and it will say Smooth bore. Smooth bore barrels are less accurate than rifled bore barrels. Cabelas, Basspro, Big5 and Sports Authority usually carry them.
