The next time you go in for a colonoscopy, take your rifle in and check it out on their equipment.  Clean it off first though.

The down sides of the cheaper bore-scopes are usually poor resolution and a large camera head, the head size on that Harbor freight one is 16mm or 5/8", not much use on anything with a smaller bore than an AA gun.
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.
