[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 597067, member: 2693"] I saved his website a long long time ago when he posted that he wasn't taking ANY new work so he could stay caught up with existing builds. I would LOVE to have a rifle that looks JUST LIKE THIS: [url=http://www.kampfeldcustom.com/index_046.htm]257 Weatherby Widow Maker[/url] [img]http://www.kampfeldcustom.com/index046012.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.kampfeldcustom.com/img_3750cpage.jpg[/img] Roy, I seem to recall one bbl maker saying that fluting was their LAST process and another told me that they flute PRIOR to final lapping. Regardless, as far as I'm concerned the bbl maker is the first choice to flute. That said, if someone like Kampfeld can do it to a known shooter and it doesn't change, then great. I never liked the looks of bbl fluting and had mixed emotions about doing it to my 30.06 but I did it and did the bolt body so I'm very pleased with it and would have a fluted bbl again. [/QUOTE]
