He didn't say the rifle was unable, just that the bore isn't too hot. I have rifles that don't have great bores but they will still group under 4" at 100 yards.
No he didn't. I made that conclusion. But I always put bore condition at the top of the list in accessing the usefulness of a firearm. But this is just rhetoric put forth for the sake of arguement in defining what this thing is we call a "Grey Rat", and the bore is just part of my criteria. But I think we are all guilty of acquiring firearms with less that desirable characteristics and gawd knows I've had a few tucked in the back of the "safe" myself. The disease runs deep!
