I have one with straight fluting, a 20". It so far is performing great, the fluting cuts back on the weight true. But I wouldn't make presence or absence of (straight) fluting a deal-breaker for a good barrel either way. Wouldn't go for the spiral however, too much chance of introducing or exposing some kind of stress... and I doubt if it would keep stiffness compared to non-fluted or straight flutes, that's my 2 cents.
just doesn't seem to be a good move for a straight steel pipe.
Think spring vs straight bar of steel. Which one flexes more?
Might look pretty but function is what I'm most concerned about.
