[QUOTE="Chawlston, post: 184924"] Now, I know whey I like my 17-4 precipitation hardened SS actions. I chose that action because it was made out of the same material we use in Nuclear Reactor coolant pump bearings that are designed to last the life (many years) of the core. And, one of the reasons the Navy chose that material was because of it's resistance to become neutron embrittled. Anyway, large aircraft landing gear is made out of the same material. Finally, the benchrest game switched to stainless steel barrels because they were cheaper in the long run when one considers chambering fees and barrel life over say 20,000 of shooting.
