Burnt Bronze Bolt Guns

[wilwith1l]

My newest build is wrapping up, and it's coming up on paint time. I think I want to do the barreled action in burnt bronze or midnight bronze. It is sitting in an XLR Carbon that I would leave factory finished. However, when I search for rifles in that color all I see is ARs. Has anyone seen, or better yet, have pictures of a bolt gun in a dark bronze finish? I am thinking i want to do the flutes in a sniper grey or deep titanium, near black color.

And yes, I have googled it, I've advanced searched SH also. Thanks for any help.

Only one example, but still a nice example of the dark/light contrast:

or...

The opposite of what you are doing:

I stumbled across this thread earlier this morning while looking up info for my tikka rebuild. Hope this gives you help on the brown/bronze and black color scheme. I'm thinking about doing something similar to the Patriot Brown and Black on mine when I have it rebarreled.

Thank you! That looks very similar to what I have in mind. My smith is supposed to be getting some samples together. This will be a big help. Thanks again.

Burnt Bronze!! I think i own 4 guns now in that color. Looks awesome with a black chassis

I love Smith Brown and Federal Standard Field Drab, Burned bronze and RAL8000 are nice as well..

Here's one from Scout Supply Company. Russell did the rings and the barreled action burnt bronze with black accents. Looks pretty slick.

This is killing me. I want one in burnt bronze bad

 

[wilwith1l]

You guys made up my mind. I put in the order yesterday. Burnt Bronze with a near-black titanium in the the interrupted fluting.

This is the best color scheme that I've ever seen.

Can't remember where I snapped this screenshot (probably somewhere on the hide), but every time I look at it, I start to drool. Anyone know what it is? I'm not much of a bolt gun chassis expert. (i.e. I know nothing about them). If it were mine, I'd definitely make the barrel longer though...

Looks like a Badger Action (M2008 or M2013) in a KRG Whiskey 3 chassis.

 

[Hennig]

Yep, that's mine. M2013 in a Gen 3 KRG Whiskey 3. That's the 17" 308 barrel, but I run a 22" 7-08 most of the time.

It's a thing of beauty. The 22" barrel probably looks even better. Does it shoot as good as it looks?

 

[Hennig]

Shoots a lot better than I do (which isn't hard, haha). Did some load testing with the 7-08 barrel last week, 10x 5round groups with the magnetospeed hanging off it averaged at .43moa or some such. I was happy with that.
