[QUOTE="VenatusDominus, post: 2585494, member: 117869"] Stainless steel is softer than chrome moly steel. Chrome moly steel will last longer than stainless steel when used in barrels. Stainless steel is softer and easier to tool, making it easier to produce an accurate barrel than the harder chrome moly. Chrome lined barrels are even less prone to wear but it is difficult to get a perfectly consistent lining and so can have a negative effect on accuracy. [/QUOTE]
