My two main rifles have stainless barrels, but both are full camo painted, problem solved. I did put one very nice buck into launch mode at an amazing long distance with the glint off my then new Remington M700 with that mirror like RKW high gloss finish that Remington thought was a good idea. That stock is gone now too. A few years back I was in a tree stand when another hunter walked by with his rifle slung over his back and I was amazed at how many times I got the flash of the sun also from his back off of his blued barrel. Stainless or blued and the stocks too get camo flat paint because it is just one more thing that I can do to put things in my favor.


My other auto is a .45

The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price has faded from memory
