New to the site, hope to find some help. Im new to side milling with a shell mill. I bought a Sumitomo 3" 5 flute shell mill with 90 degree inserts. My current cutting specs are,600sfm 763rpm 0.006fpt 25ipm .04stepover .3depthofcut on 3"thick A36 plate that has been burned out. Im getting a surface finish that looks good, but i can see each step every .3 down. It is cutting like the inserts are not a true 90 but they are. The rake on the inserts is somewhat aggressive. I originally thought it was my depth of cut, but I ruled that out by taking smaller cuts.

I hope I have explained this well enough to not cause confusion. I've only been programming for a few years now.
Thanks
