Here is a problem for you ordinance types in our group Mildew on rifle stocks. In the picture below are two No 4 M I rifles stored in the same rifle cabinet side by side for years. Then this winter the right suddenly developed what I take to be mildew on the stock.

Now I'm sure this was from how the rifles were stored/coated at some point in the past. Now my question what is the best stuff to clean it and prevent it from reoccurring.

Whats kind of interesting despite actual banging around these rifles have had (dings in the wood etc) each rifle has matching numbers, receiver, bolt, band and magazine. The bores on both are clean and not obviously worn.

Cheers Phil
