[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 681319, member: 13833"] What you have is not necessarily pitting but the bluing flaking off the stainless steel. You have is an older 7 mag with a stainless barrel (which is a good thing)! I have NEVER seen one that didn't have the same problem after a few years and you will have the problem again before long. What I have done with them is bead blast them and make a modern looking stainless barrel. It is easy to do and they look great.Just make sure you tape things up good that you don't want blasted or grit in, and have at it. I think you will like the result......Rich [/QUOTE]
