Had this in the shotgun forum but figured I would see a little more traffic hear.


What can be used to wipe/clean the stock really good before wiping down with oil. The wood has some spots on it from sweat and being in the field. It's starting to get a little dry to the touch and in need of a fresh wipe down of oil. Also, what is the proper oil to use.

On another note, after cleaning the gun I always wipe down with a Hoppes silicon cloth. It says its good for protecting sod stock and metal.. Is this okay to be using on this oil finished stock? Will the silicon absorb in to the finish and have any negative effects?


You'll shoot your eye out
