Is rebluing the only option, or should I just live with it?

What is the torque spec for the bottom 2 bolts that holds everything together and is there a sequence?

Could you recommend any ammo that seems to work well in these guns? I know every gun is different but surely there are some that seem to work better and some to avoid.

Thanks for any advice.
Once rust starts it's almost impossible to keep it from coming back. I would strip and refinish but I'm very anal about that stuff, for factory ammo, I've always had pretty descent luck with hornady ammo.. opinions may vary:)
