Look at Cerakote's website and see what you like. Request swatches and they will send squares of aluminum that have been cerakoted free. Then you can hold them up to the stock and compare.

I really like burnt bronze. I accidentally did it with krylon and really like it.

This is what I did. After painting mine badly in a multicam pattern I stripped it and repainted it with krylon camo brown but it is very close to burnt broze cerakote.

PINK Now that's funny! I think Desert Sand or OD Green would look purty snappy. Is this a Tikka build? Specs?

Should've just bought a Savage and been ready to be frustrated with poor feeding, and routine replacing of ejector springs. FIFY Haven't had these problems in over 1,200 rounds. You're talking about a part that cost $5. You will buy a rifle, strip everything off of it and spend thousands to rebuild it. Besides, I just like to give BIL a hard time, he's jealous of my rifle colors.

If you like the darker greens look at BDU Green.
