Sometimes the old ways are the best ways.
Give this a try:
Round up some "Whiting" Basically ground chalk- a pottery supply store will have it and it is cheap-.75 cents a pound! Get a couple of pounds.
Pick up some Denatured Alcohol.
Mix the Whiting into some of the Alcohol and make up a paste about like toothpaste.
Slather it on to a warm stock with a 1" paint brush.
Let the paste dry and brush off the powder.
If the stock is really oily it will help to dampen it with mineral spirits first.
Repeat as needed. This will leech out the majority of the oil without harming the stock.
Harsh chemicals can damage the wood and cause reactions with stains and or change the color of the wood.
