Cerakote color recommendations with proof carbon barrel?

[loaders_loft]

Here is the barrel and stock (stocky's m50 carbon fiber in charcoal grey). It will be mated up to a rem 700, with brake and hs precision bottom metal for a light hunting rifle.

I've scrolled through the cerakote colors, but just can't make a decision. I would like to leave the carbon portion as-is, and tending towards flat or nearly flat, greys and blacks for all the metal but maybe something more exciting is in order...

I've recently come across this website. They have some neat coating designs.

I say tungsten or graphite black in an 18 to 1 satin finish. Both would look good with that charcoal stock.

Or sniper gray

What is the 18 to 1 satin finish?

What is the 18 to 1 satin finish?

You can do 12/1 which is gloss 18/1 is satin and 24/1 is flat. I prefer the satin finish myself.

I'd go with something like the Troy Coyote Tan on the barrel steel, lug and action then go Armor black on the bolt to match the bottom metal. Tan hardware as well.

Think the tan would go with the charcoal stock and carbon barrel?

I like midnight bronze to but Im not big on tan steel with the black stock but to each their own.

Here is a couple

I did for my nephew in tungsten and graphite black. The barrel and action are the same two colors but distressed.

I really like the tungston and graphite. That looks really good with the carbon barrel.
