Boiled Linseed oil with about a 1/3 of turpentine is what it was, warm the wood stock & oil by setting in the sun, let dry or soak up polish with OOOO steel wool then repeat several times, the more coats the better plus the look & color will change after each application grain in wood will stand out.

If I remember correctly...... Linseed oil finish is just a little lighter than Tung oil.

If you use either of these oils...........in a few years you may want to give the gun stock a recoating to make it look like new again.
