The easy to apply GUN-SAV-R BY bROWNELLS is a great finish, comes in high gloss or egg shell finish..Last forever and stays nice..I used it from the start when Brownells introduced it on a few of my hunting rifles and they took a beating and kept on ticking..

I kinda liked the gloss sanded back to that egg shell finish, couldn't tell any difference, just depended on application..a slab of the same stock wood lasted in my roof top testing as well as Varathane but safe..

I did use it as a filler in that I finished a gunstock, sanded back to wood from 400 grt. then hand rubbed boiled Linseed oil with dryers and another piece without dryers on top as a finisher, God forbid!! Not only was it LInseed beautiful, it lasted as did the roof top samples, so far and thats been 40 years ago and its still like new short of hunting abuse..I think that fill was the secret, dunno! but it worked.. but today I just use Gun-SAV-R, it will surley outlast me..

ray got a check from you today, i did send you the rings and bases, right? just making sure.
