the bleach method may not take to well as the modern steel has less iron in it . but frankly i have not tried it on modern steels. Frankly I have not tried iton such a barrel . Now I have done it on old Remington’s , Winchesters and such as rust Black was a process that was often used . Especially on Parkers.
In the long run it will produce a far more resilient finish then cold blue .
If it were me , I would use a slow rust method using laurel mountain. By using that with repeated boils and carding , you will get a very nice smooth black color
Chicken ,
you need to oil the barrel with a good oil . i use motor oil . do you best to keep it good and wet for 12 -24 hours . then whipe it down . doing so will help stop the rusting so that the finish stays fine and smooth
