Hey Mag-Num
After reading this post on your stocks, I thought I'd give a stock refinish a try on a 1937 Remington SportMaster .22 rifle I gave to my daughter. Its amazing the wood they covered up "back in the day".
Here is a before and after shot of the butt of the rifle. This is after 6 very light coats of Tru-Oil. I used 0000 steel wool between every coat and let it dry 24 hours between coats. I'm going to put on a couple more thin coats and then wait a week to apply the Stock Sheen & Conditioner. The Stock Sheen will bring the gloss down to a Satin Sheen.

After
Thanks for inspiring me! Now I've got a couple sets of Magna PC grips to re-finish!
