[QUOTE="excaliber, post: 1313196, member: 86034"] Fluting a Bartlein #3 barrel will only remove 2 oz of material at the most and it will not effect accuracy. This is straight from Bartlein as I too have a #3 .264 5R barrel I was inquiring about fluting. Fluting will not affect accuracy, if it did GAP wouldn't flute all their Bartlein #3 barrels on their extreme hunter build. Bartlein wouldn't offer factory fluted barrels if they thought it would degrade accuracy. I'm still up in the air about fluting this barrel. I like the way it looks and it will remove up to 2 more ounces off the gun. What's another hundred dollars or so when the build is already going to be over 3K? [/QUOTE]
