Hansli,
I can't answer completely but I am using it on cherry right now and while the wood is not yet finished, it looks like it will be very little or no effect. I would do the whole piece were I do to a stock but with more soaking up near the head where the recoil will matter most.

Perhaps Doug can tell us more about such things from a stockman's perspective.
