[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 191713, member: 8843"] Well if you don't shoot the gun before the barrel is fluted and after its all done you can't get it to shoot then your our the cost of a barrel and fluting because Shilen is gonna say that having it fluted ruined it and the smith will say that the barrel was bad to start with , the truth will never be know , if sombody gets a little dumb with the fluting and pressures the barrel to much then it may ruin it. Their are alot fo guys out their that flute barrels later in their life with good results , I know a couple that have ned no troubles , just make sure that the smith is copetant and doesen't stress the barrel and that he re-laps its when hes done. Personaly I would not have a barrel fluted after it was finished especialy not a button rifled barrel [/QUOTE]
