Let me make it as simple as possible.
I pointed out that Fromby's Tung Oil Finish is not Tung oil. This comes from woodworking refinishing circles. Those posts pointed out it is a simple wiping varnish (pre-prepared for use). No big deal except I found it interesting and realized that pure tung oil may not provide the pop in contrast or protection of composite barrels as the Formby's product (aka warning to others, use Formby's not something else on the shelf that says tung oil).
It made my barrels look better, it was easy to apply, it was easy to find in the store, it dried quickly and evenly, I hope it provides protection from rust in rain and snow better than gun oil.
I will probably never use the stuff on a piece of wood.
I hope this helps clear your confusion.
