Looking for some pictures with rifles coated in the following colors:

H-201Q, McMillan Gray
H-241Q, Smith's Gray
H-227Q, Tactical Gray
H-234Q, Sniper Gray (already saw this in another thread)
H-237Q, Tungsten

I hope I can get some photos of these various colors- I sent off for swatches already- Plan is to do the barreled actions in one of these shades of gray and just run a black stock- maybe with some marinetex grip work painted to match?

I'd even take some input from people who may have seen the color used but don't have pictures.

Thanks gentleman!

I saw a big horn barreled action in gray today at accurate ordnance. I am not sure what shade of grey it was but I really like it. I think gray on a black stock would be slick.

Re: Cerakote grays- rifle pictures anyone?

I am seeing this is going to be a very tough decision on which gray to go with...

The only warning I'll give you is that the Sniper Grey tends to look a little blue to me (which I didn't want).

Specs on the 300 WM:

700 LA Sendero - stock action with a Holland spring kit and Timney trigger
BO Bolt Knob done by a guy on Ebay (cheap/easy/nice)
APA Little Bastard brake (barrel threaded and recrowned by Jojo's Gunworks)
McMillan A5 with BDL inlet - Non adjustable - used from a 'Hide member
Wyatt's DBM and mag
Nightforce Rail
Valdada rings
Vortex Viper PST
Harris bipod

Tactical Grey CeraKote by RugerSlinger in Mass.

Shot it last weekend and was thrilled with the results. The brake does an amazing job of eliminating recoil (although the noise and rush of air will take your breath away for a second). Accuracy was better than I could of hoped for with factory (Hornady TAP 180s) ammo and the scope tracked great.

I'm really stoked to get these color samples. The pictures I've seen so far all look incredible... I can't believe I entertained a mustard type OD for a while. Gray is the ticket! Going to be tough as hell deciding which gray!
 
Re: Cerakote grays- rifle pictures anyone?

GREAT looking Benelli!!! However, the background almost gives the gun a bit of a tan hue it would seem. May just be how my computer is rendering it. Doesn't look like the other sniper gray I saw though.

Anyway, looks incredible non-the-less!!

ah man now I need to strip my shotgun down and coat it with sniper gray. oh well the finish that remington shot on it from the factory is starting to bubble up.

Just took in the barrel to my benelli nova field shotgun in for coating today. If it weren't for the receiver being polymer, I would have done something other than black... oh well... It had seen a few too many times in the rail

Great looking Tikka. I see my .223 getting coated in the near future. Great job.

Same Sniper Grey color on an action in a black chassis:

This is Tungsten:

This is Satin Aluminum which is more silver than grey:

There are a lot of nice grey type Cerakote colors. Sniper Grey and Tungsten are my favorites.
 
Finish on Metal is Dark Grey Cerakote

Hi Sendero,

Sorry to bring this old post up again mate, but when you say that it's dark grey, Do you mean as in "H-210Q Sig Dark Grey"?

I just want to know, because I've fallen deeply in love with your rifle's color, and I'm getting one built right now...

Cheers mate.
