That's my shared secret of the day.
Will need to contact Mr. Casteel; he's only about 35 miles from me. His brother made me a Pennsylvania style muzzleloader in 1976 - for the bi-centennial. What a sweet gun.

Jack,
Are you using the tung oil to cover minor repairs in Tru-Oil finishes, or are you using tung oil to completely refinish the wood over the Tru-oil finish? I have used Casey's Tru-oil finish for years, and also Formsby's Tung oil finish.
