I ask this because somebody just started a thread asking about the Freedom Barrels and I've noticed that in a few of the newer listings the barrel material is either not mentioned at all or is said to be "Chrome-Moly Vanadium."
It could just be that those listings inadvertently neglect to specify the material, but sometimes this can mean that the seller doesn't want to highlight the fact of the lower grade 4140 steel. 4140 is not the end of the world, but it is a factor that knowledgeable buyers would be keen to know about.
I was hoping that our local PSA guy would be a hip n groovy dood and clear this up one way or the other.
