Remington Model 7 stock finish cracks?

[rockrat]

Anyone have a good idea how to, or even if, some hairline cracks could be fixed on a Remington Model 7 I picked up today? The cracks in the finish are about 3" long and longitudinal. Maybe 8 or so fine cracks in the finish

Wondering about using a similar finish and applying to the cracks to kind of fill them in. Great looking gun, but the cracks kind of detract from the gun.

thanks

i think it is a never good to leave a gun in a car when it is going to be 25 to 40 below 0 that night, especially when you get in the car , warm it up and go hunting. even some good finishishes check or crack with that extreem. to rapid to fast each way a change. yes ive done that and yes i had to refinish the gun. its possible thats what happened to your gun. im sure you will take better care of it.
