[QUOTE="EddieHarren, post: 475053, member: 5138"] I know of two barrel makers who flute barrels on a vertical mill. Both cut on the side facing the operator. Both have very elaborate follow rest systems on the back side of the barrel to eliminate push-off. Both use flood coolant systems that have large reserves of coolant to keep the operating temp as low as possible. I have had one of these guys flute numerous barrels for me and have never had an issue with any of them. I always have the barrel chambered and fitted before the fluting. [/QUOTE]
