    We wont do Blaser barrels or barrels that are not suitable for fluting, ie: too thin profile and so on.
    For a guarantee on accuracy we will need proof of factory ammo accuracy beforehand, we would need to take the rifle down to the range first and shoot factory rounds through it to work out how well its going to group. If we do this there is going to be an extra charge as this will take a lot of time. Fluting the barrel is going to change the harmonics so if you are shooting hand loads they may need to be worked up again to suit the fluted barrel.

    From barrels we have fluted and shot we haven't noticed any adverse effects on accuracy.
