Well, all I can surmise from that is Rick decided it doesn't help or there are issues fluting existing rifles. Might want to phone him and see what his current thinking is. He probably knows more about building long range rifles than anyone I ever met so his Input would have value.

There is an entire page on their FAQ listing explaining the multitude of reasons why they will not flute bolts or barrels...safety, metal stresses, accuracy changes, etc. Too bad since I am looking to get both done on my 7-08.
