    Very very happy with the outcome. The finish is extremely hard and has turned out perfectly. I got several coats on both barrel and action as this rifle gets a hard time in the field. No issues with adherence or bubbling or runs. Took my time letting it dry in a warm draft proof room, hanging on fishing line. I used a cylindrical foam insert in the action so no paint in there.

    Total job including the sprayer cost me $100, and I still have half a bottle of Duracoat left for another rifle.
    go on then giz a look
    sounds awesome
