If you can keep it completely air-tight and keep the stock entirely submerged (weighted) several days may be enough. As the oil and stain is leeched out of the wood the acetone will darken comensurately. The acetone will not harm the wood at all.

Incidentally, acetone is HIGHLY combustible and you DON'T want to breath a lot of the fumes.
