I'm planning on acquiring a Savage or Stevens rifle for my first build project. Most of the aftermarket drop-in barrels appear to be in stainless; the best bargains on used rifles around here are blued. I don't really have a need for the stainless.
Other than it looking strange, are there any problems such as bimetallic corrosion with putting a stainless barrel on a blued action?
Is there a source for cost-effective blued drop-in aftermarket barrels?
