I'm thinking of finishing a rifle in some sort of grey finish. I have seen some Ruger Rifles with a grey color finish that was darker than a stainless type finish. Any Ideas or suggestion's I don't think I want to "paint" the gun with a bake on type finish.

Nickel or hard chrome applied over a matte sand or bead blasted metal finish will give you what you want.
Acid finished white metal can rust easily, so it's not recommended.
 
Contact Brownel's. They used to have the instructions on how to French Gray a firearm available for the asking.

If you want a clear, professional job to add service or protection to your firearm, I highly suggest www.apwcogan.com www.bearcoat.com www.robarguns.com .
CeraKote may be available in a dull gray or "battleship grey" color.
Robar's top notch NP3+ helps clean/support the weapon's surfaces but it's not cheap & gunsmith work may take 3/6mo. :(
Bearcoat.com comes in grey too and they have short shop times for most firearms. The rifles are in use by some sworn LE agencies & SWAT.
Brownells, www.brownells.com is good for the "kitchen table gunsmith" :).
MidwayUSA.com offers a lot of stuff too.
