Title: Looking for info on "Cerakote" ceramic coating for rifles.
Post by: Cascade_Sherpa on April 17, 2009, 09:14:50 AM: Hey Team! I had really great feedback asking about Hogue stocks so I thought I'd post another question that's been plaguing me..... here goes:

I've seen a lot of high end sniper/hunting rifles wearing a ceramic coating called "Cerakote", and was wondering if anybody had feedback good or bad. Or if there is a place in the WA that does this sort of gun coating. I've been on a website but it looks as if they mostly cater to big military contracts and high volume custom gunsmiths. Any ideas of costs? It looks tough as hell and I've got highly loved but overly used 300 win that the blueing is wearing through and I want to stop any more wear on it. Thanks.
