I do have one question though on the montucky. Stainless action, barrel, bolt, trigger, action screws and a synthetic stock. Why the blued mag box?? Seems out of place

I checked a Kimber Montana WSM and the mag. box is blue and attracts a magnet.

These Kimber Montanas are excellent rifles.
I have many rifles that are the same. Some of them are very old and they are just fine.

Craig Because it's less expensive and doesn't need to be SS.
