The stock is so close grained you would not need to put stock oil on it. It has zero pores. I am going to use light coats of Teak oil for finishing to bring out the grain further .
Itīs usefull to know that birch, as sort of wood, is much more "living" than normal walnut i.e. if you donīt impegrate it carefully enough it could easily warp if humidity conditions vary much.
I do not want to darken the wood on this rifle . Any suggestions from my Finnish friends for proper gunstock finish on Arctic Birch would be appreciated . Something clear and penetrating I should think
