Here is an interesting new fluting design. It is supposed to help with barrel harmonics and increased surface helps with cooling. http://kitup.military.com/2012/03/he...rels-whys.html
Hex Fluted Rifle Barrel

That honeycomb lattice is an interesting approach to dealing with longitudinal shockwave force, as well as vibratory whip. It would be interesting to see a scientific analysis of several barrels with this type of surface geometry against standard barrels from the same barrel maker to see if there are any real benefits.

Those are made about an hour from me and one of their salesmen my neighbor. They are definitely nice rifles and super light. I got to shoot one a few weeks ago and it handled very well. I'm not entirely sold on the benefits of the profiling but it definitely looks cool.NRA life, GOA life, SAF, and TSRA

I'll talk to my neighbor about a 6.5 the next time I see him. I'm supposed to help him with one of his rifle projects some time soon.NRA life, GOA life, SAF, and TSRA
