Will Tru Oil fill in areas? What about getting the color matched? Maybe one of those stain pens that Minwax sells? Get the color first, then fill in the void? Just a wild guess.I'd rub a few coats of Tru Oil in them to bring them up to grade. Buff with 4/0 steel wool and call it good.
A few drops of boiling water directly on the scratch will lift the wood. Let it dry then "gently" smooth with some 'oooo' steel woolI think something like a wash cloth damp with hot water and covered with a steam iron may lift the dents out of wood. But you gotta be super extra careful or it'll remove the finish too.
These are scratches not dents. Gouged fibers not compressed. It's a pretty inconspicuous area and continued sling use will only continue the "damage" If it really bothers you once the color is matched keep filling with a clear finish and blend with steel wool.I think something like a wash cloth damp with hot water and covered with a steam iron may lift the dents out of wood.

yes it does . My M77 .270 win is all scratched from 40 years of hunting . It has brought down a lot of whitetail deer . Thought many times of a refinish on the wood . I always change my mind . just wouldn't seem rightGives it "character".
