Regardless of only being like .5-.75 ounces lighter than a LW, there's more weight toward the rear of the EWL, so it should handle better/point even faster.
I'm so tempted to switch from the EWL Fluted to the BFH LW since I don't know how much of a difference the weight and distribution will make, but I have kinda bought into the whole BFH thing as having a slight, tangible advantage (ETA: I have NO actual evidence or proof of this). Of course, I've owned 4 non-CHF and never had an issue with accuracy or barrel life, so technically, it should be as moot a point as 1/2 ounce.
That said, I'm buying ANOTHER this Summer--so if I love the 14.5" I could always get another in BFH EWL-F instead of going with a 16" which was my plan (to mount a TR24R or TA31, and an SF or Lantac).
