I. Put. A stain called “Gunstock by Verathane,,and  topped it with Biirchwood Casey.. it. Looks good too me. Feels good.  I  don’t know anyone who doctor up there. Factory rifles this  way.  This forum has good advise
 I know it’s a Remington/Marlin  but it shoot great and balances  well.

There's nothing wrong with the Remington Marlins. They had a rough patch when they first started making Marlins but they got that all sorted out.

It looks like you did a great job Rick. Would you mind posting a picture of the other side of the rifles as well? Good job!

Looks good, Rick! How are the internals on the Remlin? I heard some reports that the early ones were described as "rough" or "gritty".
