take a look into coating it with cera-kote or dura coat. brownells has some you can apply at home or there are many guys doing cera-kote.

I've been hunting with my Ruger 77 since 1978, rain, snow, sleet or sunshine. I've always dried it off with paper towels and wiped it down carefully with a soft flannel rag rubbed full of Rig Gun Grease at the end of each day. I've had no rusting problems whatsoever, even though there are a few spots where the bluing has worn off from wear.
Head-shot:

Thanks, High country I'll take a look at that...

The baked on coating from Brownells is awesome.  The only thing you need to do is remove the scope, bolt, and trigger.  Then find an oven large enough.  A local club or charity usually has one large enough.  Just have to convince then to let you use it.

HEAD-SHOT,
There are a couple of product you should try. Birchwood-Casey makes a inexpensive rust prevention product. They make it in a aerosol spray can and in a "hand wipe" type individual package. Another great product is Corosion-X. You need to apply every once and awhile but it sure helps with my Model 70.
