The new Hunter needed a bit of something, so I broke out the rattle can of black web and went to work.

It's admittedly not the best job in town, but it will work.
It's capped with three coats of matte clear to seal it.

I still haven't had it to the range.... one of these days soon!

I found the web paint at an arts and craft store.

6.5 Creedmoor.

There were a couple of light spots that I didn't care for, so I hit them again. I'll have to shoot some update shots in better light.

It was a simple task that just personalized the rifle a bit.

Thanks for the good feedback !

All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

I wish!

Archery elk season is upon us and my hunting spot is only 30 minutes away - and there's both fall Chinook and summer steelhead in the river.....so, I'm busy.....
Along with all the normal chores around the house etc...
I should be able to sneak out for a while here soon!

Kingston: she weighs 6.10 pounds with the scope and mounts.
I looked at maybe using one of the Granite speckletone paints, but I felt it would add more weight and possibly be more time/skill relevant that I needed to be....
