    After playing around with this stuff for awhile, I've come to the conclusion that all black is best. Ya never know, it may end up on another rifle in the future. Additionally, it likely won't match perfectly anyway. BTW, the Z600 is GREAT. Good luck.

    Matt black, the stainless won't match the rings/barrel most likely. And it is that much more shine to look at.
