    Why don't people understand fluting does nothing apart from looks. Weight loss is irrelevant as your only talking grains. Strength loss is a much bigger cost.

    If you really want to loss weight from the rifle then work out what the diameter of the barrel after fluting then machine the whole barrel to that dimension. And by the way, the barrel will cool much quicker doing that than fluting, yes it will heat faster too.

    IF fluting was worthwhile then you would see it in a lot of other places. You don't.
