what advantage is gained by spiral fluting of bolt

[26Reload]

The wrought iron on two of mine show no rubbing on cartridges....
The thin spiral I had done to my third bolt looks okay....but it isn't a pretty as the wrought iron....
I wonder...they should be able to recut it to wrought iron...
And I have another bolt......hmmm
Anyone know if LRI is discounting bolt flouting this winter....

I had LRI do two and they did a good job. I sent the other 20+ to Kampfeld customs and have stayed with him.

I like his work and can only compare it to lri. His work was great. Always has time to talk if you have questions. Best of all, he gets them back to you very quickly. I have sent bolts on a Thursday and had them back the next week. They don't seem to sit in his shop more than a day or two.
Side note, he was kind enough to do one for free that we built for a raffle. Good guy

Showing his expertise for more work is smart....do you know his rates...

I spiral fluted my barrel. Went with a fluted bolt to match. If I wanted to look like every slapdick at the range, I'd have told my Smith to build a rifle that looks factory...

Here are the rates

He also offers bulk discounts. I'd take the 5 minutes and give him a call. Might be worth it for ya. I won't go anywhere else.
Btw, his last name is Feldcamp. I called him mr Kampfeld for 3 years before I knew his real name
