    Should have added the 4" piece to the scale, so we know exactly the difference was.

    The video never answers teh question: How much did the fluting remove? The 600g is the fluting AND the chop.

    In my experience a fluted barrel is heavier than a standard #2 barrel. To account for the fluting the barrel must be of larger diameter to begin with so after fluting there is still more steel material in the portions of the barrel that is not fluted. If I used a fluted barrel on my .35 caliber for instance I wouldn't be able to carry the rifle for very long in the mountains.

    Nicely done Piet.
    The audio balance seems much better. 😀👍
    I am curious how much weight was shaved off with fluting alone.

    Excellent video. Could you tell me what is the coating on you fluted barrelled action?

    doesnt really show how much fluting saves when we dont know how much the weight of the piece you cut of does it

    Why title the video “How much weight does fluting save?” And then never address the weight of the flutes?

  • @manueladolfoholzmannillane3050

    ok, but if i have two barrels, both have the same weight, but one is flutted, The myth says that the flutted one it is going to be stiffer and have better heat dissipation. True or false?

    Thanks Piet - I am looking forward to the next video as I have always wondered if you can improve the FPS with adding a silencer on a shorter barrel.

    hey piet, ive got a howa 1500 308 bull barrel, i love the look of the flute job, what does it do besides looking good, does it have any neg points to doing it.

    Hi Piet after you shot this rifle, would you send anther one fir fluting or not?

    Dont you feel it's such horse crap . Y'all have to serialize your barrels but can buy a supressor like it's nothing
    We can buy barrels like their nothing but have to go though hoops to get a supressor

  • @bearfootbowhunter3054

    Iv just been listening to a podcast on fluting . It claimed that it can create a loose spot in the boar where the fluting is. Have you experienced this ?

    Let’s be honest, fluting looks freaking cool. That’s it.

    Why such the worry over weight? Are you running a marathon with the gun or something? Just lost a bunch of velocity by chopping the barrel. Any why the suppressor? So much for accuracy...

      Rifle shot incredibly well, and used to hunt in mountains for baboons. Sold it since, new one ever better. But carbon barrel and faster cartridge

    You basically saved 1/3 lb in weight. Thatd be like.. a polymer AICS magazine in weight.

      Actually, its way more, cut 4inch off the barrel also.
