    Bolt fluting - is the weight reduction worth it?

    Greetings all, I'm giving some thought to fluting and lightening the bolt on my Rem Mod 7. It is suppressed, and already has a forward weight bias - is the weight off the bolt going to exaggerate this? Anyone with any indication of how much weight is saved, and if it is worth it? Always looking for ways to lighten the load in order to travel further....Much appreciated.
