I only own 3 stainless guns, and they are all handguns. Ruger Super Six convertible (22 long and 22 mag) A S&W 657 in 41 mag, and a Ruger SP 101 in 357. All are a dream to clean and care for.

I do have many older guns, all blued. They do take a bit more care and I have to really consider whether to take them out in foul weather. Likely I'm gonna put a weather-proof or weather resistant coating on one shotgun, one longarm 22, one deer rifle and one muzzy in order to save my favored rifles in the lousy weather.

If I could I'd replace everything with stainless, but it's just not feasible.
