When I bought my Tikka Varmint back in high school I originally wanted the blued version, but I could only find the stainless in stock near me. Now I am planning on doing a variety of upgrades listed in my sig, but since I use this as my main hunting rifle I would also like to do something about the shiny silver barreled action. I am thinking of trying Brownell's AlumaHyde II in OD; it is about $13/can so twice as much as krylon, but supposed to be much more durable.
Has anyone used this? I may also just do Krylon since that's in stock At Walmart and pretty much every home improvement and sporting goods store. If I do krylon it will be a full camo, not just coating the barrel and action, however I have read that its not durable, cracks, and comes off when it contacts gun oil.
