Make sure they air cure it
we do oem cerakote but won't fool with optics
risk/reward not worth it

It's your money, so spend it as you like. But cerakoting a fine expensive scope is one of the more stupid fashion statements popular today, IMHO.

A couple of the younger guys I've built rifles for wanted their scopes CeraKoted. I have no problem doing barreled actions, but no way am I going to screw with scopes. They've been going to a guy in Wichita, Ks. to get them done, and AFAIK, they've turned out fine. Air dry & heat cure colors don't match perfectly, but that seems to be the only issue they've had. Not a snowball's chance in hell I'll have one of my Kahles scopes done though...if it was that important not to have a black scope atop one of my rifles, I'd just get a roll of that camo wrap fabric tape & use it.

You can use the high heat Cerakote,,
ive done stocks at 140 for 3 to 4 hours and they cure fine. If my scope can't handle 140 degrees, I don't want it anyways.

Another plug for Brandon he did a scope of mine and it was perfect.

Most quality optics can handle a curing temp of 170 or lower just fine. Most of the manufacturers that I know of bake them at around 150 prior to filling them with whatever inert gas that they use to prevent fogging to help out gas any moisture that is in the optic. Just Sayin'...
