Other than the example picture on the sales site.
Anyone have a decent pic, ideally on a bull or semi-bull barrel?
I'm trying to decide between this and other fluting options for a 20P build

This is a 750 front end on a 6X45. If you are looking to cut weight this ain't the one. Greg

Thank you Greg.
I saw that pic from one of your posts a while back, is that still the same appearance of the B Square fluting? I only ask because the example picture on the sales site looks like a pretty big cut and doesn't seem to have the same grooves yours does. Also in the same example pic it doesn't appear to have fluting on the sides.
I want to retain the accuracy potential from the semi-bull. Do you think the square or triangular would diminish that even a little? I'm mostly just picking a fluting for looks but taking off a few ounces without any other sacrifice would be a nice bonus too. If you think either of those will affect the accuracy even a touch then I'll just go with a straight fluting.
Any input is appreciated. Tim

They have revamped that one for sure. If I wanted lost weight I'd go with the long straight cuts although I bet there's not two ounces difference between the obviously heavy machined surfaces.
That being said a standard weight will shoot as well as the bull. I have everything from smiley to twisted to dimples. They all look good and I don't see accuracy issues. None of my seven bull barrels are fluted BTW.

I'll admit, it's largely an appearance thing for me. I like the look of a fat piece of steel at the muzzle but for some reason my OCD requires something to break up the look along the barrel, haha. It sounds like I can carry on with no fear of performance issues.
Thank you again for the info! It's time I pay back all the help you and others on the forum have given, heading over to the reloading thread to post up some of my workups for the 6x45 that I purchased a few years ago.
