My personal recommendation would be Tru-oil but It will be a little more work than tung.
I Tru-oiled a TC Renegade stock, a Ruger 10-22, and my Dad's old M1 Carbine stock and all came out looking better than new using Tru-oil (unless you are looking for a GI correct finish)
Tru-oil really brought out the tiger stripe in the Ruger and Renegade walnut.
Tape over the checkering before applying (rubbing out, applying, rubbing out, applying, rubbing out, repeat)

I think a Remington stock from the 70's needs a polyurethane finish, to keep it looking original. I like the Miniwax poly over a light walnut stain.
