First thanks for the education on the differences. Now, where to buy? I've seen pics of one of these in stainless steel but can't seem to find one for sale. Dear Wife has it in her head that her Dad's had a gold trigger. I think either he had this done or the memory is slipping a bit. The plan...
Got a stainless Pietta 1858 Remmie on order which will recieve an action job at BigIrons. I already have a blue steel Pietta 1858 Remmie and like it a lot. I was on Cabela's website a while ago and noticed this...
I'm going to give it a custom paint job, it needs to be a bolt action, stainless steel, synthetic stock. And I was thinking a Browning A-Bolt Stainless Stalker, Winchester Model 70 Extreme Weather SS, or a Remington 700 XCR.

A near new stainless one with 22" barrel has come up nearby. Was considering getting it to play around with heavy bullets as its 1:20 twist is a bit better than my Rossi 1892 1:30....

I'm leaning towards a Roscoe barrel for my latest upper. However, I don't know if the Purebred line in stainless would be more appropriate than the Bloodline product line. I believe the Bloodline barrels are nitrided, while the Purebred are 416R stainless. It's an upper/rifle loosely based on...
A Stainless steel cleaning rod is likely to be made from a common alloy such as 300 series. (Most likely 304) 300 series alloys are not hard and shouldn't pose a problem if used with reasonable care. A muzzle or bore guide would be a plus. NOW,.. if you OCD types really want something to keep you awake at night obsessing over, consider this!
A thin layer of oil or wax are needed to protect steel, even stainless, during storage. There are specific oils for rust prevention during storage, like Breakfree's Collector. There is a nice product called Renaissance Wax, as well. Storing the firearms in a dehumidified area is a big plus, too.
