i wonder how weather resistant the new type finish is. when i looked at teflon coatings they always talked about things like salt spray tests and how many hours it could withstand it. is this a coating or just a type of stainless that is better at resisting corrosion.
Here's a quote from the Remington website.
"Extreme conditions call for an extreme gun. And never before has a rifle this durable and rugged been introduced to the world of hunting. The cutting edge in rifle design, the Model 700 XCR (Xtreme Conditions Rifle) uses Remington’s proprietary new TriNyte™ Corrosion Control System to make the Model 700 XCR virtually impervious to even the most extreme conditions. The TriNyte System takes firearm protection further than it’s ever been before by using proven corrosion-fighting materials and an innovative, state-of-the-art application process. The result is a finish that provides scratch and corrosion resistance far superior to stainless steel alone and better than any other gun on the market."
I was looking for that in a rifle when I bought mine. Been happy with it so far.
