First time poster with newbie question. I've bow hunted for many years but would like to pick up a little range and try something new. After reading many threads, I've decided on the Omega - but I'm wondering about barrels.

The price (on Cabelas) is the same for the stainless or camo barrel. Is there a difference in barrel quality between the two? Any reason to choose one over the other? I didn't know if they're putting camo paint on a poorer quality barrel. That brings up another question - is stainless really that much more rust resistant than blue? There's a $100 difference in price... Any help choosing between the stainless and camo is appreciated!

Thanks for helping out all of us newb's - this forum is great!
