I have used my Gradient Lens bore scope for years. I use it mostly to make sure that I have properly cleaned the bore. It also comes in handy to routinely check throat wear and the general condition of the barrel.

I use a MDS Inc. scope to inspect barrels. It may not be the best out there, but it works and it's about medium priced. I check for gas port burrs, erosion, pitting, etc. in the barrels I inspect as well as things like gas post location (I like to see gas ports in M14 barrels located between the lands in a groove). It's a handy tool.
