Hopefully Darren will chime in since he is the painting expert but I had read that they are essential the same thing, except Polane T is just the Sherwin-Williams branded product. And I think you can buy Duracoat in smaller amounts and more colors.

Also did 3 more for gunner500
First is a Ruger factory stock that had a new pad installed (for a little more LOP), and received the OD/Tan/Dark Earth/Black sponge

In a similar paint pattern is a factory stock

And finally is his Rimrock stock painted in what I'm referring to as a "bruise" camo - Black/Snow Grey/Purple sponge. It's fitting for the 338-378 barreled action it will hold

HELL YEAH!!!!! smile, looking real good Darren, fine work Sir.

The Ruger stock holds a little Hawkeye stainless in 358 Winchester, the Model 70 stock will house an old ornery cerakoted action stainless barreled 300 RUM, and yes on the 338 cal bruiser, black and purple are perfect colors for a weapon that flings 300 gr Accubonds at 3K. grin

Awesome rifle darren and enjoying your paint job pics as well. Might you share the specs of that build like barrel contour, action, and total weight? Thanks!

Since I'm a 6.5 slut and don't have a x47 yet, I'll be the first to call dibs!

Darn nice rifle, Darren!!
