Title: 30-06 or 300 win mag Stainless Semi auto rifles
Post by: Kit Carson on April 17, 2016, 02:55:11 PM: Are there any stainless rifles in 30-06 or 300 win mag?

Benelli R1 and Browning BAR don't come in stainless.
I've seen a stainless Ruger Gunsite Scout in .308, but I would like to find a different stainless rifle in a larger caliber...

I really can't think of anything that fits the bill. Isn't the Gunsite a Bolt gun as well? I know you can get mini 30's in stainless but they are 7.62x39

The action is still blued though. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think a all stainless action will hold up to the wear and tear of high volume shooting via the manufacturers hesitation of making them. You might consider the BLR in stainless w/pistol grip. Average wet side shot 77 yards/maybe 3 shots max. Comes in both caliber so you have stated with 4 rounds for the 06/ 3 for the win mag/ add one to the chamber. :twocents: :sry:
