I would like recommendations on what measures to take to weatherproof my new Kimber 30-06 wood stock. I've read that the oil finish Kimber uses doesn't seal the wood against moisture very well and the barrel channel and inletting don't appear to have any finish. I'd like to keep the appearance the same on the outside as I do like the oil finish appearance, but am concerned about moisture protection as I live in the humid South and this is a rifle for hunting. I've read of various waxes,etc, but I want something to use on the checkering as well. I'm thinking of using satin finish polyurethane applied very sparingly and carefully to the inletting and barrel channel. Please help.
