One must always keep in mind that it took decades for that oil to soak deep into the stock head, and getting it all out is virtually impossible. Much can be removed however by getting some TSP at your local hardware, mixing with water and soaking the stock for a day or two (weighted down with a brick, etc.). Change the solution once in the midst. Then rinse with clean water. After that, wash with lacquer thinner and allow to dry. That's about all you can do.
All this is for a stripped stock, intended to be refinished, of course.
