    Rattlecanned Chassis'd R700 .308 AAC-SD

    Basecoat: Rustoleum Texture in Desert Bisque
    Topcoat: Rustoleum Camo in Sand

    Remington 700 Tactical AAC-SD 308Win
    XLR Industries Carbon chassis
    Timney trigger
    Primary Arms Platinum Series 6-30x56FFP w/ACSS HUD DMR Reticle
    Precision Armament M4-72 Severe-Duty Compensator
    Magpul mag

    Went to ITTS Sniper I training a couple weeks ago and shot out to 950 yards


    Then decided to rattlecan the rifle. I've previously done a couple of AR's so not a stranger to doing this and I don't really have anything I consider a safe queen, all of them are used.

      Awesome job! was it just Krylon? I'm thinking of doing something similar. Or did you use something from Brownells?
      Thanks for sharing.

          I did a rattlecan kryptek pattern but finished it off with clear Brownell’s Alumahyde. As long as your prep work is good to keep the rattlecan paint on the stock it’s pretty durable. Although I used Fusion camo colors.

                Nicely done! When you prep properly and let things dry it’s amazing how durable spray paint is. It’s not ceracoat, but it’s fun and easy to do. And most of us aren’t running around abusing or even shooting our guns these day! Best part is if you change your mind you can repaint it!
