Looks like a nice color match (which actual in service rifles didn't always have) but how well will it last? Only time will tell.

One thing about the boiled Linseed oil finish, tis not a one day project and then done, it takes quite a while to do it right. However, it is also the one finish that can be easily repaired and restored with the same work it took applying it to begin with. If you get a scratch, exposing light wood, some sanding and oil applied the right way will restore the finish identical to the original
