Default RE: ALL stainless rifles

You will not likely find a rifle that is entirely stainless as some parts need to be other materials for hardness or other qualities that stainless lacks.Most companies use stainless barrels and receivers but many internal parts are of other materials.Even the stainless used in barrels and receivers are not the super corrosion resistant 300 series alloys because they are too soft.Most companies use 416 stainless for these applications.
