Came out better than I expected. I left the brake bare because it's getting replaced when my tax stamp comes back. Excuse the tactical minivan, my brother has MD.

Looks like you spilled some on the driveway.

Is that paint scheme so the drones can't see the rifle from the air?

When my spidey sense tells me a drone lurks above, I point it at the sky.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Sebben</div><div class="ubbcode-body">What barrel contour is that? </div></div>

It's a Brux in M24 contour. It's a gradual taper to .990 at the muzzle.

Thanks fellas. This was the first time I attempted to paint a stock, barreled action and scope all at once. It's also a departure from the shrubs I normally scatter about lazily so it was unnerving but the extra prep saved me a lot of time, headache and mess. As it was drying I was let down with the turnout but a good wetsand the next day made everything nice, otherwise the metal surfaces would have had a different texture than the fiberglass.
