Hornady barrel fluting

Paul we are going to do one of those on that taperless barrel I asked you about a bit a go. We did a couple of aggressive ones the previous batch but I think we'll go even more on the next one :)
 
I want to get one of the podcast guys into Fclass. Seth, maybe you? Everything sounds more convincing with about 40 added pounds of punch your face muscle behind it, I do like the approach. Compare your old videos.

I have 2,400 more 250 A-Tips en route, because that’s all power valley had. I don’t have a lifetime supply so don’t put a pencil to these anytime soon. 110’s and 190’s either. If something has to go, that packaging is gawd-awfully expensive looking and has a half life of 50 years in a landfill.

That new win mag v PRC episode is very good. Chamber one in it with a big single shot action, at a 8.5 twist and look for 2,850 fps. You guys are on something here that I can’t reel in by myself. At least so far.

Always enjoy seeing your work, Paul. I need to give you a call one of these days soon again. I have a few questions for “Boltfluter Gunsmithing University “
 
These are going to be display guns to promote the 338 ARC cartridge and will travel around the country. They wanted some kind of fluting to attract attention. These should do the job. Lol!

Beautiful work on the fluting, but the concept still makes absolutely no sense to me.
I suppose someone, somewhere might use it in a bolt gun for hunting where semi-autos might be banned but 99% of it's application is going to be in the AR platform like the .300 BO. Seems that would make much more sense as a target market- but WTF do I know...

What bolt chassis has a forend short enough for an 8" barrel?

There's an AR market for short AR barrels with a suppressor tucked under the handguard. On the bolt side... MDT makes some pretty light/short chassis.
