I used an acetone bath on a LC Smith I once had. Took an incredible amount of oil out of the stock. I repeatedly took it out of the bath, wiped it clean and then immersed it again. Maybe a half dozen times. No further oil leeched out after refinishing. Yrs ago, I used a heat lamp on an old stock that was pretty well soaked w/oil. Oil came to the surface but it's an incredibly slow process. Acetone bath I found was/is much faster and no harm to the wood that I could discern.
