To flute or not to flute?

My goal was to have a little of something of each to try out in a potentially cranky pistol, for possible improvement in function. Murphy's law strikes again! Since I have accumulated this diversity, none of my current pistols has significantly refused to digest any brand of ammo. I hope this does not use up all my good luck, I can always use it for other aspects of life.

I have some of all sorts of brands of .30 luger too, including winchester- but none of it is in a white box, only the good old yellow or yellow/blue. It is certainly not "hot", I don't expect the white box is either.
