    Looks cool? Maybe to some people.

    Saves weight? So slight (about the weight of three 2" nails) as to be a complete waste of time and a fair chunk of money.

    Some experienced hunters like to put their fingers on the bolt body to quietly work the bolt when bush stalking. Bolt fluting makes this sensible method impossible without shearing off large chunks of skin!
