My Winchester Model 320 .22, which has a very thin (evidently) blued finish seems to have more surface rust on it every time I look at it. I am hesitant to take it the range because I don't want the sweat and humidity to do any more damage.
What are my options? Currently I am looking into OXPHO-BLUE from Brownells, it seems like a good solution.
Also, it is a classic rifle and a heirloom so putting a new age finish like a Cerakote or Duracoat on it is a non starter.
ETA: The receiver remains untouched by rust while the barrel's finish is a rust-apocalypse. What could this mean? Better steel on the receiver? Better finish on the receiver?
