Budget scope in silver color

So, I have a specific color theme for the new rifle as it will "belong to" the missus and must look the part.

Rifle: R700, 6br, stainless, tiffany blue stock. Scope base, rings and scope should be silver to meet her aesthetic needs. Also, this color combo will not preclude me from shooting a midrange match with it.

So, I was originally planning a silver T36. However due to the current regime in charge of Weaver Optics, I may be disinclined. Then I saw Mueller has a 8.5-25 scope in silver. Both appropriate for the budget on this gun.

Do i have any other options around the $300-400 range? Seems a bit odd to me to be shopping for a scope based on color, but then again I never once knew I needed a bed skirt when I was single. I'm told these things matter...
 
At some point,and not saying that everyone is going to be faced with it or give a hoot....

You're gonna have to take care of the business yourself,be it scope color or bed linen's because, there's nothing on the market to satisfy the goals. Cerakote comes in a lot of colors. And for the record,some of our $$$ bedframes would look pretty messed up,shopping at Walmart for sheets. Good luck with your project.

Bushnell Nitro series but it is listed as Gun Metal Gray, if this helps.
