[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 108041, member: 8843"] Painting the exterior of the barrel will have no ill effects on accuracy. Brownells Aluma-Hyde II works realy well if your patient enough to leave it alone and cure for a week. its pretty tough when the job is done right and it comes in alot of colors. You could also look at having the SS barrle blasted with eother glass beads or better yet Aluminum oxide it;ll give a no gloss matte finish that won't reflect. Most deciant machine shops will have a blasting cabnet and shoulden't much at all to shoot it. As for the heat question , I have heard that a Black barrle will disipate heat faster than a shiney silver one. I know that the black one will heat up faster if left out in the sun. but as far as shooting causing the heat i don't think that their is enough differance for a human to tell [/QUOTE]
