Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Cerakote colour for M70

Hi all,

I've got a M70 that I am going to have cerakoted. It's in the current production bell Carlson stock, blue with grey webbing.

Does anyone have any suggestions for colour? Thinking either sniper grey, burnt bronze or midnight blue.

Even better, does anyone have any photos of rifles wearing the same or similar coloured stock with cerakoted metalwork?

Thanks

If you're looking for weatherproof but still want it to look traditional, I'd have H&M black nitride it. Just my 2 cents.

I had one done in Midnight Blue about ten years ago for a poster here - it looked fabulous..

Thanks

I like the grey that kinda matches the matte stainless color Ruger used to have on it’s rifles. I think that would go well with the spider web on the stock.

Good luck and have fun! Tom

I went with E-120 Smoke on mine. In a McMillan HTG. See if I can dig up some pics.

Sounds good!

Here's the color.

Thats a really nice, dark grey. I like it a lot,

Where is a good place to get this done? The cerekote or the black nitride.

Local gunsmith did mine when he built the rifle.
