I am building a new hunting rifle and trying to decide on barrel fluting profile and cerakote colors to go with my Manners High Plains camo stock. I am thinking to match the green color in the stock.

The action is a nitrided AntiX. Lets see what you got!

The Mil Spec OD green might be a little dark to match your stock, but the Midnight Bronze might be pretty close to the brown

I duracoated my hunting rifle's barrel and wish I didn't. Duracoat looks like shit if you scratch it, wish I would've saved the money and left the barrel in raw stainless.

However if that's not a concern, making the barrel and action either the tan or burnt bronze would be cool. Would look great to get some of the green on accents such as the bolt knob, rings, etc if you really want to do it up.
 
Rattle can, if it gets fucked up it doesn't look too bad and touch up is easy.
