I have both and I Flute most of my customers barrels just becouse that's what they want . I think it's just a "looks" kind of thing .
When I built my 30x404 1000yd rifle I done some testing on it before and after fluting . Groups fired on the same day were with in 1/2in at 1000yd before and after 8.77 before and 9.20 after , that's just to close to call . As for cooling faster it might be posiable but I don't have the equipment to test it .
