[QUOTE="Texis, post: 2412698, member: 121376"] Moisture damage: I live on the Gulf coast, hunted in east Texas for 30 years with a carbon barrel 25-06 700. Rain, fog, gun stayed in a safe in the attic and our humidity is steady 75-85% I very rarely cleaned the barrel and when I did, I did a poor job! The gun shot .5 for 30 years. I don’t deny that moisture is bad, just saying it never bothered my rifle. Push some Barnes through it with CFE223 (50-100 rounds). If you go the barrel route, go stainless. I have had good luck with Shilen. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
