Copper colored powder coat?

2 Upvotes

Is there a powder coat color that best resembles a jacketed bullet? Obviously it won't be close enough to fool anyone, but the same general color as copper? Seems the most popular colors are lipstick red and bright blue, but I have never seen anyone use a color that looks like copper.

I recently acquired an original 1890mfg 1873 win, still working on cleaning uo the chamber to hopefully shoot it, likely going to stick with BP for a bit till im comfortable with it, but what molds do people like for this cartridge? As far as im aware, the only option for a mold is accurate, any other options or info is appreciated
