It comes down to what kind of shooting you are planning and preference.
I"d stick with the stainless as:
Its mainly for the bench, so weight is a plus
Does the heavy barrel have a chromed bore? Chromed bore may be mil-spec, but I am happier without it (seem to be clean easier after break in, and be more likely to be highly accurate)
Doesn't need a brake or thread protector
Looks better
Or as recommended above, get both!
Very likely either will perform well for you. Good luck
