Wes, I think I bought a Model 88 Winchester rifle from your brother-in-law at a gun show in Sacramento. Paid $300 for it and every square inch of it had been varnished, barrel, all of the interior parts everything but the bolt. Got some Sears paint and varnish stripper, finally got all of it off and did a hot linseed hand rub finish on the stock and now it looks like new, not a mark on it. Maybe there is something to that varnish trick??
