What are the pros and cons of milling my barrel lugs versus using a lug cutter/jig?

I am considering rebarreling a rifle and want to ensure precise and accurate lugs for optimal performance. I have been researching different methods and am curious about the benefits and drawbacks of milling the barrel lugs compared to using a lug cutter or jig.

Any advice or personal experiences with either method would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Barrel lugs are overrated anyway! Who needs all that precision milling when a good ol lug cutter gets the job done just fine? Save time and money, folks. Keep it simple.
