    Tikka T3x bluing durability

    Looking at a new Tikka Hunter and curious from people who have one how the bluing stands up to rain and snow. I've had new blued Savages rust in the rain in hours.

    Touch up bluing

    Thought I would share a good product I've found for doing some touch up bluing on steel. Using Birchwood casey perma blue paste. Quite easy to use for small jobs. Just degrease the metal (I use a small cloth and acetone). The paste goes on with a small cotton patch, rub in for 30 seconds...
