As it's Nationals season I am preparing my 4-year-old Shadow 2 for competition, for reference I think the gun ate around 15k rounds. While doing a closer inspection I noticed that half of the barrel inside the barrel rifling grooves, there are some rough marks, like carbon. Hopefully, I captured it with my phone as I don't have a bore scope. When I look at the chamber the grooves are clean. I tried hitting it with a plastic pick, but nothing. I got the soft metal one and when I tried it I could see metal shavings Can someone advise what is this? I shoot factory FMJ ammo except in a few cases (recently) when I shot hand loads with cast bullets. Also, I clean my gun after every season. Thanks in advance.

I am looking to upgrade from my father's messenger bag. Currently my bag is full and it is really hard to carry, having a backpack would make it mich easier. I am thinking of getting the Elite Trolley but there is basically no information online nor videos. Doesn't someone have it and what is your experience? I don't necessarily need the trolley because I have a range cart but what I like is the option for PCC. Looking at the pictures I think I like RangePack because of compartments. Any suggestions or even better images od the Elite Trolley full? Thank you in advance
