    I think from memory scott from Ssrnz has done it in the past. Also gunworks should have it programmed in the machine

    Old thread I know but..... spiral fluting on a bolt does serve a purpose so you are incorrect that is is useless, it is a actually used to make it easier to cut through ice if your action gets iced up, I have a friend in Canada that hunts in VERY cold climates and he told me why he had his rifle bolt fluted after I gave him grief about it.

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    If you want spirals on the outside, get a Steyr Manlicher.
