Watco Danish Oil is what I have been using. I'm getting better at knowing what NOT to do. If the oil is disappearing without the wood getting darker, I will seal it with Wipe on Poly, sand it lightly and start over. That prevents the oil from going too far into the wood making it soft and saturates the top layer only.
One stock off an old model 70 .375 H&H was such poor quality I gave up on making it look good, clear coated it, and returned it to the owner who flogged it. The rifle was one of those 1965-80's push feeds before Winchester went back to CRF actions.
