I have an older Savage that the stock is all scared up and scratched.

I put some Strip Ease on it and got all the business off and down to the wood grain. It's sanded and I used some 004 steel wool on it. It's ready to be dressed up now.

What you recommend now. True oil? Linseed oil??

All depends on what you want the finish to look like. True-Oil is going to be a high gloss finish if I remember. Linseed is just an oil rubbed finish.

There are a plethora of options to use depending on your desired outcome.
