[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1312690, member: 85987"] Shillen is a button barrel. If your removing material your removing stress. In a button barrel there is some residual stress from the rifling. If your fluting and hit an rea with stress it can change the dimensions in the bore. Once that happens the bore will never deliver the consistency or top accuracy it would before the fluting. Other barrel makers flute like Pac nor. Idk if they do it before they rifle or not however the same things can happen [/QUOTE]
