Other than the obvious rust resistance of SS, What are the advantages/disadvantages or a stainless vs a chrome moly barrel when building a smokeless ML? I know there are heat treating issues when welding CM steel, are there issues with welding SS as well? Will one material last longer? Shoot better? I already built a bolt action (4140 barrel) and it turned out great but now I'm looking for more easily carried gun based on an H & R break open. Being able to TIG it will make things easier but I could work around it if necessary. Any opinions from the board will be a big help.
