I want to rebarrel my 223 10fp but would like for the aftermarket barrel to have the same finish as the action (matte). I like the looks of the matte action and barrel. Anybody done this before? Can Shilen, PacNor, etc. do this?

I offer painted barrels and its a flat black "tactical style"
You will find that the "FP" models often times have a parkerized finish to them. They are not "matte" like other Savage rifles tend to be. I have barrels that have come off of "FP" models and they don't match exactly on my matte blue actions... but they're close enough.
Maybe you can find a finish, and do both your action and aftermarket barrel?
It's more parkerized than matte for sure. If I can't match it, I'll just do a bead blasted stainless I guess
