[QUOTE="ARlife4me, post: 3063048, member: 105694"] I have 2 McG's (32" 264wm savage magnum contour & 6.5prc AR hbar no flutes). The 6.5 is heavier than the 32" straight fluted. Get something with a .750 muzzle diameter. Depending on flute style it can save a fair amount of weight. 7-08 is going to have little recoil, so weight shouldn't be an issue. Spiral should be good on the #3 and if going #4 try corkscrew or diamond. Keep in mind on how many as I think you could have too many flutes. The only other barrel I have that's fluted is an AR 28" 7saum spiral. [/QUOTE]
