Vast majority of my scopes are black, even on stainless rifles, but I do have a couple of silver scopes on stainless rifles too. One is walnut stocked, the other is factory camo. I think a black scope looks better with a black synthetic stock. The only thing that bugs me, and I guess it's just personal preference, is mismatched rings. I like black rings on a black scope and silver rings on a silver scope.

Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.
