DIY paint on rifle stock
I have used the rustoleum gray/green camo paint. With the matte top coat it takes on a little olive tint. I really like it. I just wiped down the gun with acetone plugged any holes I didn't want paint in and painted the whole thing. Worked out well. Good luck. -

Glock
I think the wheelgun is a much better wilderness gun. A .357 or a .45 would be my personal choice because of the low power short cartridges that can also be used if wanted. So I like money unless I can turn the Glock into more money. However, Glocks are very good guns for the most part. In the... -

While the 260 case is slightly longer the overall length of the case means bullets will need to be seated further into the case giving slight, if any, advantage to the... -

Rifle for Kids
You could look at Sportsman's warehouse for a Howa Kuiu and then sell the stock or cut it and use it. You can hollow out the but stock on some of the Boyd's models and get at least 6 oz.. Probably a good bit more. I only mention Sportsman's cause they have them at $399-419. Which is a pretty... -

Building a new rifle verses buying
I have shot Remington for many years most have been very good. However, for a rifle I wasn't going to tinker with, I believe the Howa is a good bit better. Remington has so much aftermarket support partially because so much support is needed.
