Hi guys. Help me out with a color for my 2008 limited fwt (win model 70) 300 wizzum, with a factory Extreme Weather fluted barrel installed. I was thinking this thing needs to be one color  : ![[Linked Image]](http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x401/chiefbsa/003-67.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x401/chiefbsa/006-43.jpg) Should I leave it as is or go with something like graphite black? Your input is appreciated..... ![[Linked Image]](http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x401/chiefbsa/008-31.jpg)

Graphite Black would look really nice. Cerakote the rings/bases to match.
Beauty stock!

I would choose Midnight Purple to go with that beautiful timber, although Graphite Black would certainly work.

Just the action and trigger guard in the matte black, then aluminum oxide blast the barrel ... Sweet. I dig the blued/SS look also.
Thank God for Mississippi!

Seeing how youse is such a cheap ass, here's my tip of the day,
Birdsong BlackT that baby in grahite black,
It will have Steve McQueen good looks,and Birdsong does all metal, rings, bases for the same price.....

I like Cerakote but that rifle I like the way it is. Leave it.

FWIW, I have a rifle that had a stainless barrel and blued action and I did the graphite black. I now wish I would have left the barrel stainless. I really like the look of stainless barrels. Not so much a fan of bluing, so maybe do that in graphite black. Just a thought.

That is one nicely figured stock. I vote to leave it as is.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Midnight purple, graphite black or Birdsong if you go away from the cerakote.
