Is stainless worth it?

---

I've been looking into the Remington 1858 and the model I was looking at is available in blued or stainless. The stainless model is in the neighborhood of $150 more than the blued (grand total of 500 smackers). Would there be any appreciable benefit towards paying the buck and getting stainless or would I be just as well off by keeping a blued model well oiled. I know stainless won't obviate the need to clean BP residue but I assume it would probably hold up a bit better in the hot 'n' humid southeast (or at least be less maintenance intensive). Thoughts?
