I always use tung oil. I love the feel of a oil finish. I also WHISKER my stocks after sanding. You can google it. But it is basically get the wood wet, then heat over stove, or heat gun. The steam causes the wood to expand and all the fibers that are lying down stand up and can be taken down with SYNTHETIC steel wool. Dont use regular steel wool. Repeat until smooth then I wet sand a couple coats of tung oil with 300-600 then hand apply tung oil.
I heard this about tung oil and I like it.
Once a day, for a week, Once a week for a month, once a month for a year, and once a year for life
