depends
The stainless usually isn't bothered by the affects of powder residue as much as a chromemoly barrel is. Meaning they will normally give you a little longer barrel life, but not always. The stainless takes a lot longer time to rust which makes it ideal in a hunting rifle. If this matters to you, I would use it. If you always have time to clean the barrel and action, I wouldn't worry about it as much. I guess it boils down to a matter of taste.
