Default RE: Stainless VS blued??

Hey there Quilly....I think I know you from somewhere

Anyway.....I have no experience whatsoever with stainless barrels, which is why I ask this. I hear everyone talking about how if you hunt in wet weather, stainless barrel and synthetic stock is the way to go. What makes it so much better?

I have a VERY old rifle which is my hunting rifle and I guarantee it has seen the nastiest weather available. It has a wooden stock and blued barrel. It still shoots as well as or better then any rifle made today, and has never had any problems.

What is the big advantage of stainless/synthetic vs. blued/wooden?
