Every polygonal barrel I know of on the market is button rifled. That being said, polygonal rifling is a style, whereas the lands aren't 90 degrees from the grooves. They can be easier to clean, and may deform some very think jacketed bullets less. Overall the type of rifling employed is only one part of the total equation that makes a barrel. Poorly executed, all of the whizz bang features in the world are for nothing. Look more for the overall package then singular features.
I guess I didn't do my homework enough. I was under the impression that polygonal was a type of cut rifling. You bring up a good with the total equation, though. I've contacted John Hollinger at White Oak Precision, and it actually seems like I'll save money going with a Krieger barrel. I figured it would have cost more.

It's better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
