I would check with Carlos at Ed's gun shop. If you are a BH209 shooter, the gun will come ready to shoot that powder. There are some options, so discuss with Carlos. There is NOBODY better to deal with!

I bought one when they first cam out in 2010 the bore was not as smooth as my Accura or Apex but it was still ok. I didn't like the action release lever but the newer ones are like the Apex and Accura now and I think have a rubber coated stock . It was a good gun and shot well, I was impressed with its breech plug.

stainless without a doubt, never had any rust issues with my SS cva's. Much easier to care for and clean.

You WONT regret the SS.

Stainless It Will Be 
 Thanks For the help fellas

Stainless steel is not rust proof.  You'll still need to take care of the rifle just as you always do.  This may not be a consideration now, but, Stainless steel is much better for re-sale too.  Nice choice you made on rifles.  You'll be happy with that one!

Oh i will never let my Optima stay dirty Stainless or not if a one  doesn't take of the finish & the bore stainless will ruin  the same a blue steel would

You can look at guns made 60 years ago, and the bluing is still good. All it takes is some care.
