Greg: Ken Eversull once told me old-fashioned Johnson paste wax was as good as anything. I don't really wax my stocks, but rather just rub in a tiny bit of boiled linseed oil with my fingers from time to time. I have, however, used Renniasance wax on rainy days, where I take a little bit with a Q-tip and place it at wood to metal fit areas where I don't want water to penetrate, such as around the locks. I think this may just be giving me a false sense of security, but I do it anyway. D Trevallion once told me Best guns with perfect wood to metal fit are pretty much waterproof except at triggers????? I once put some Reniss wax on a stock and it didn't look real good. I wonder too if dirt and grime couldn't stick to it also?? I prefer to just occasionally rub in TINY amounts of the boiled linseed oil to an oil finished stock, which is what I assume you are referring to.
