Thanks Cigar and Rugerman. It was a bit of a gamble when I bought the Brno as it had a dirty great black stain about 6 inches up from the base of the stock, probably from a sleeved recoil pad. Got it for a good price though. The stain came off when I stripped the stock and all the dents came out with a bit of time with the soldering iron. The trigger is as smooth as butter and it’s a great rifle. Certainly a keeper. I’ve also got a ‘71 10/22 that I’ve had for about 35 years or so. The joy when I discovered a walnut stock under the stain. Both are oiled with Tru-oil.
