The matte black finish on the Remingtons seems to WANT to rust.I have noticed it on other matte finish Remingtons belonging to some of my friends. I have to keep a close eye on my sons gun. it's the only one we have with that finish. Breakfree CLP seems to do the best job of preventing rust on it without resorting to more drastic measures. I haven't had problems on the inside of the gun just on the outside where the matte black finish is. Especially, where your hands touch the metal.
As to the bores on the others I imagine you didn't oil (Breakfree CLP) them thoroughly. You don't need a heavy coat of oil just a complete coat.
Don't use WD-40. It doesn't seem to "last" on stored guns.
