About LinkBacks'Technically' and if it makes a gnats cock of difference, it would be stronger than full flutes, providing the interrupted portions are opposite each other, if not opposite 'technically' the barrel will go /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ like a spring lolOriginally Posted by veitnamcam
Ha Ha good question! Presumably someone has used a clever program to work out the most weight removal for the least loss of rigidity.
Or maybe it just looks coolI couldn't tell ya.
Certainly looks like more metal is removed than "normal" fluting.
Who is a design engineer? Spanners? run some numbers
If I get bored during my next trip, I'll draw them all up and run finite analysis on the different types.
I like the golf ball fluting thats done overseas and some spiral stuff - not the spiral I've seen in NZ though.
Would be interesting the effect of say 1:8 RH spiral fluting on a 1:8 RH twist barrel?
