Looking good. This may be something you already know. But I've done some stock finishing (flintlocks I've built) and refinishing of old guns. Used True Oil a lot, because that is what I knew in the early years. Now I realize that the old tried and true boiled linseed oil is the way to go. I ran across this video and it has a few nuances that I'll need to try next time, especially the sanding and going right to the oil application without wiping the "sawdust" off. Thought this may be useful, unless you already have this down. The video even uses a Krag (sporterized) for an example.
