Just what can I expect from an oil-finished walnut stock in terms of resisting dents and scratches?
Not much if I go by the new rifle I've had a few weeks. I dented the stock when it bumped against the rounded edge of a wood table. Yes, I know rifles are meant to be used ... but this Savage almost dents when you look at it.
It seems my glossy Remington walnut stocks are more durable.
edits: changed mahogany to walnut.
