[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 2566879, member: 93138"] Re: Nickel-Teflon or Nickel-Boron coatings; Nickel-Teflon is a nice, low sheen medium gray. It will "bright spot" where it repeatedly slides against a holster or scabbard or the like. Much like what bluing does in the same situation. Prior to Weatherby making actual SS rifles they used this coating on their all-weather rifles. The salt-spray corrosion test results for this coating are pretty remarkable. Possibly better than the 400 series SS's used in making rifles. Nickel-Boron is a bit brighter and I'd only consider it for the bolt body and not the whole rifle. [/QUOTE]
