Bolt action rifles and McNett Camo wrap questions

I ordered my Tikka T-3 stainless lite in 243 for coyote hunting. The stock is black and of course the barrel is stainless. I thought about wrapping the barrel and stock with McNett Camo Wrap to blend into the environment but I'm wondering if it will have a "bad affect" on my accuracy? The T-3 is free floating. I watched a video where the rifle was wrapped from the end of the barrel to the action enclosing the barrel and stock.

I tried to add a picture to further explain what I'm talking about. Any advice is appreciated.

That wrap is pretty inexpensive. Why not shoot the rifle to get a baseline accuracy assessment, then wrap the rifle and shoot it again? If the accuracy is off then you have an actual answer. My feeling is that the wrap will not affect "hunting accuracy" enough to matter.
