Yes, but at the highest expense of rigidity compared to about any other fluting pattern as far as I can tell.
This all trends back to me wondering why? We already hav lightweight barrels that shed heat quickly and are easier to hump. Which matches the intent of the platform. We already have heavy barrels for wanna be SAW use, which makes everyone happy about another FOB being overrun and m4s is all they got.
I don't see how rotini does either well or both well enough to be considered a good compromise.
I want to see the testing that lead to rotini.
