I believe that by 1930 Winchester and most other US makers had learned the value of a final neck anneal to alleviate the stress cracking common in earlier production.

Label on box says "Staynless" - this means non-corrosive priming.

Good call Para... I missed the Staynless on the box. I didn't know they were annealing by 1930 though.
