Bore lapping or polishing
When i get this new GPR or trade rifle, how would I go about finishing off the bore for accuracy? polishing, some kind of abrassive compound on a patch and brush ?.

All the GPR owners I know, just shot theirs. I would not lap it unless you find specific reasons for doing so - like a tight spot for instance.

If you're shooting patched round ball just shoot it as it gets more polished as you shoot. Just check for cut patches out in front of your rifle and if they are okay just keep shooting.
