I'm looking at rebarreling a couple actions and was wondering if there are any concerns on putting a stainless barrel on a blued action or a CM barrel on a stainless action. Also what about the recoil lug? What would the benefits be of either . Thanks for any input in advance.
 
Re: SS and CM barrels

I like stainless on stainless as its easy to maintain in my climate.

There is no negitive effects either way.

Recoil lugs are sold in both to allow equal finishing. Most of my stuff gets painted anyways
