Paint job for my Remington model 700
Thought I would share some pics of the paint I had put on my Remington Model 700 .30-06. It always bugged me to be packing a black synthetic stocked gun with a flat black barrel. Too much black for my liking. So I heard about a local guy that has been doing this for turkey guns for several years. I'm pleased with how it came out.

Good looking camo there Grasshopper, but it sticks out like a sore thumb against that purple background.
I finally decided to paint this custom Mc Millanstocked M700 with Krylon, it matches my enviroment pretty well.

Is there any specific paint that is resilliant enough to put on a rifle without it chipping or flaking off after a box or two? or is that what Krylon is?

Gangly, Krylon is nothing more than a brand of spray paint that can be had from walleywurld or home depot. The cost is about $3.50 a can and it's available in the basic camo earth tones. I dont wory about the scratches and dings in the finish because it's simply an easy fix with a touch of a button.The most attention needs to be that everything is clean and free of oil for good results.
