"i've been thinking about getting a new gun barrel and was torn between stainless steel and chrome moly. Does anyone here have any experience with these? "
"i've used both and I would say it really depends on what you want out of it. Stainless steel barrels are typically more accurate, but chrome moly is more durable. "
