Hi all,
Spent 3 days running around central PA in search of a bear with nothing to show for the efforts. Took my new 35 Whelen built on a Mauser action and after spending 1 day running around wet mountain laurel, I have NO finish left on my stock. Needless to say, the stock got wet, swelled and I'm assuming lost zero.
I used 3 coats of LinSpeed (sp?) oil on the stock initially. Won't be using that again. I'm looking for suggestions for a waterproof, durable finish. Thanks.
