[QUOTE="hammertyme, post: 480135, member: 12863"] Other than the process is somewhat different, the outcome from Nitriding Chrome-moly and stainless is the same, They are both the same hardness and they are both beautiful black in color! Being suspicious by nature I tried having a positive attitude and listening to the salesman that did my first barrel. I pretty much do not trust salesmeen and those who are trying to sell me on a product for their buddy. Since I live in a salt water world I could only hope it did not hurt a great shooting barrel. If it did I was only out a takeoff barrel. Ended up shooting just like before and now it was rust proof! I became a believer after the third and forth barrels with the first action were done. Note: Savage does not stress relieve barrels or actions. Nitriding does stress relieve everything. I had to remove bedding material from a stock when I got the barreled action back as the holes did not line up the same after nitriding. Yes the bolts lined up and threaded in but the alignment was quite tight requiring me to open the holes a hair so that the recoil was on the lug only and not the bolts. Special Note: Little lady told me just moments ago that she drew a any cow moose tag and I drew an any bull moose tag for this fall!! Neal [/QUOTE]
