Ah, so Gnoahhh knows his stuff but I don't given we both said the same thing? His was a longer more involved answer but given that.... Take one of your oil finished rifle stocks and come up here to hunt. I'll bet you a dollar to a dog turd it will swell and warp within 48 hours. Better yet, just lay it down in the shower for a few hours with the shower giving it a light sprinkle. Try it and get back to me. If you've never hunted in the rain you don't know squat about water resistant stock finishes.

Go tell the Spartans,Travelers passing by,That here,Obedient to their laws we lie.

I'm older now but I'm still runnin' against the wind
