Fluting
#11
I'm sure PF could chime in but my understanding from very competent 'smiths is that if it is done improperly it can negatively affect accuracy.

Charlie Milazzo saw a sub-MOA gun open up to over MOA because of it.

Some believe that after fluting it would be necessary to cryo-treat the barrel (due to the stress fluting can impart on the metal) to "realign" the grain of the metal.
