    Several people I know have used Nate and love his work.
    More shooting, less typing.

    Talk to Fred @ Sharp Shooter Supply. He does the "bling" thing. Beautiful work!
    Got 4 and they look great. ;D

    Aside from reducing mass, what other benefit does this process provide?

    It looks 8)! Anything to dress up the "ugly" Savage. And the guys at the range think it's a high $$ rig that just beat their a$$! (Priceless!!) ;D

    some claim it helps remove dirt and debris buildup from the action. Me I want the cool factor is all. and less bearing suface.

    When the guys walk by and eyeball your rig, keep a rag handy so you can wipe off their drool.

    Re: Bolt Fluting

    I had Nate at Straight Shot do mine and well it just looks great! heck of a guy to deal with and does fine work! I was told that it helped with functioning with trash in there, I like the tactical shooting and being that close to the ground you get all sorts of neat stuff in the action plus it looks cool! I'm sure there are several folks that do this work but I've just dealt with Nate, for some reason I wnt to say that Kevin may do the work also at Stockade? I know he ask who did mine when I sent it up there for the AI mag conversion he's doing. Later,

    Re: Bolt Fluting

    Oh crap. I have 2 guns that would match that blue bolt..Uh Oh!!!


    Are they a pain to keep clean? I guess a good spray with the air hose or something would clean em out if they got real dirty.

    Hey Fred, Do we send in the complete bolt or just the bolt body?

    your right, I did. also said, no rush as I'm still deer hunting. that's fast service

    if any of them , that you have shown , are mine, I'll be more happy/satisfied, then surprised.

    they look great.

    I just hope pdog06, drools over them, & then orders his.

    can't believe he's not on the phone trying to contact you , or Lisa.

    well he'll just have to wait until next year. ;D

    Can you do this on a Remington bolt? This would look good with my Brux interrupted fluted barrel.

    OOOOOOH I think SSS found a new way to spend my money.

    They look GREAT!! Gotta go check pricing...be right back.

    Can't seem to find the Flutedbolt pricing at SSS. Any hints, or is this a test?
