I'm thinking of buying a Tikka 7mm08. I know SS is more corrosion resistant, but are there any advantages to the blue over the SS? The difference in cost is $120. | ||

No. Buy the blue and a $12.00 can of Brownell Alumihyde II. | |||

I have the Tikka T3 lite blue in 7mm-08 and am very happy with it. "I will not raise taxes on those making more than 250k" | |||

Can't tell you which forum I saw it on, but in the past few days there has been a discussion that revealed that breaking a factory barrel loose is nearly impossible on the blued version; the SS version is easier to disassemble. ________________________ "Every country has the government it deserves." - Joseph de Maistre | |||

my blue one rusts, to offer a stainless barrel must be a exuse for bad bluening  | |||

Buy the stainless! You can still apply any type of spray on finish, giving you double protection! I really like Duracoat. It is a spray on finish that comes is numerous colors and styles! | |||
