SS is less susceptible to rust. Some say SS looks cool. Some say blued is less game-spooking. (that's a stretch, maybe). Blued is less expensive.
Th - th- th- th-th that's all, folks.
Advantages for whom, The user or maker? Since we are omitting elemental resistance, nothing is an advantage for you.Quote:

Aftermarket they are the same.
No one seems to agree on SS lasting longer (barrel wear) vs Chromolly Steel.
You can actually get a CM unfinished (aka in the White) and it looks about the same as SS. If its target only, a bit of oil and it stays quite nice.
My aftermarket barrels are SS as I like the contrasting looks between a blue/black receiver and the barrel.
