Have you tried gunsamerica? My buddies have had great luck selling high end custom guns there.

Is that a factory barrel that has been fluted? Was it CM or SS metal before the cerakote?

Factory barrel that was fluted. It was stainless prior to Cerakoting.

Factory barrel that was fluted. It was stainless prior to Cerakoting. So it was a 116, not 110? Do you have any group pics after fluting? I've always been hesitant to flute factory tubes. Esp .338.

Yes it is a 116, sorry my mistake. I have all of my guns fluted and have never had a problem. Sorry, I don't keep pictures of targets. I have tons animals I've killed around the world with my guns but no pictures of targets. It's an awesome gun and I'm trying to fund my sheep hunt and later in the year a brown bear hunt in Alaska.

10-4. If you do it to all of then, I'll take your word. Just trying to justify this for muself. Just started a LW 300 WSM that fills virtually this same niche.

Fluting making the barrel cool quicker and adds rigidity plus it looks really cool.
