Teflon coating?
 
I like the protection of a stainless barrel but dont like the glare from it (might spook game) does anyone know where I can get it Teflon coated? I sent one rifle and got camo dipped but I would like to get this one Teflon coated

If you bead blast it,there will be no glare at all.

I don't mean to throw a fork in you plans but consider that all my rifles except one is stainless. I've hunted game in all kinds of scenarios and not once have I spooked game. Perhaps I spooked game I didn't know where there but to my knowledge none.

I've also read that gloss black barrels reflect more light than a stainless.

If you want to coat it or bead blast it, knock yourself out but I don't think you need to.

I have a Marlin xlr 45/70 naturally in stainless, and have taken game from 50 to 100 plus yards from tree stand's and on the ground, and never had a problem with glare. But at the same time, if you let that what if get in the back of your mind there's alway's doubt. the cheapest way to have it done would be find a gunsmith school relatively close and let them do it. They are watched over like hawk's and the cost is penny's if at all.
