Gabe, not trying to make you rush, just getting a bit excited I guess. Between Junglans and yourself the posts have been very interesting and inspiring. The reason for the questions is that most articles that I have read in the past regarding Linseed oil have usually said that the finish looks great but does not wear all that well. Hence my question to you as you have done so much research with these oils.
I have a MS 1910 that I will be refinishing the stock on shortly and am now considering your method if it wears well enough.
As far as sun testing, I was referring more to how it reacts when being carried in the sun under normal hunting conditions rather than leaving it sitting in the sun for days on end.
By the way, I have ordered some of the Alkanet root powder which should arrive today or early next week. Should be good to see my wife's face when I ask her to buy me some Pantyhose.

Keep up the good work, really appreciated.

Waidmannsheil.
