[QUOTE="Boss Hoss, post: 664435, member: 5060"] No --- if fluting is done correctly it will not have a negative effect on the tube. Many world records have been set with fluted tubes in the BR game. Almost all of my rifles have fluted barrels and that includes the competition ones as well. If anyone tells you that the act of fluting itself will decrease the accuracy potential of a barrel by the act itself you need to find a good Smith that knows what he or she is doing. Mine does so I do not have to worry. [/QUOTE]
