 This is my 6.8. Nothing special as I just wanted to make it blend in better.

Check my website. All of the rifles have some Krylon on them.
I really like to sponge technique. I used it to add a little darker color to the Manners on the 7 Rem Mag. It's effective and very fast to apply.

Here is my rifle. I still haven't got around to painting the scope and barrel yet.   I used rattle cans and broom straw. I've also done a shotgun for a friend but cant find the pics on this computer.

Thanks. Our place has a lot of native oaks so I used a leaf from one of those. Got the idea from a sniper forum.

 Never took a better pic, and I repainted that rifle pink for my wife.
