scope is Weaver Extreme 2.5-10x56 ill ret in ADM ext mount (evening hog hunting)
aimpoint in Bobro mount (stalk hunting)

nice job!!!

I would love to know how to paint a gun like you did here. Looks very sharp.

Excellent!

sprayed thoroughly with brake cleaner and wiped down with clean rags to clean it

I used Kryon flat camo paint

base coat of olive drab
then brown stripes
then just start using a small branch with leaves on it and alternating between desert tan, green, black and brown

just got to work on it for a bit

the cool thing is that if you don’t like it, it all comes off with copious amounts of brake cleaner or acetone…

it won’t flake off and will hold up but it can be removed easily enough

having said that, now, I won’t spray my Sakos !

looks great !

That looks great. Did you do the sling too?

yes I did do the strap as well

Beautiful paint job. Can you get some new pictures in better lighting so we can see the color effects better?

sure, and I will post the 5.56 pix as well
