Thank you. Need some more trigger time and learn the rifle as well as i know my 7mm. Found that building it with the good stuff from the get go is worth it.

Thank you!All i did to this was lay down a base coat of desert tan, then lay some cheese cloth over where i want it and give it a quick spritz. Then layed a branch from a plant here and a quick spritz over that and clear. I just did plain old rattle can rustolium flat camo because i like to see how things look before i do a more permanent/expensive route. Wont stand up to abuse but once it starts lookin ratty ill do a full strip/blast and do it properly. I shoot every weekend but other rifles ive done like this are still lookin good after a couple years so who knows when ill re apply. If you want it to last and know itll be how you want it just rough up good and primer and ceracote.

Bubba,

 

Nice job.

How about helping out a fellow enthusiast?

Where did you acquire the components?

At what cost?

Where did you begin?

I know that's what I want to do, but where do you start?

 

Thanks,

T
