Very nice rifle ! On a related note of your post, how does one get rid of these wood boring insects.In the past I have wrapped the item and put it in a freezer for a prolonged period of time. It seems to have worked, however in the back of my mind, I've always been worried that they were only in hibernation and they could reappear.

I get a plastic bag and put item into bag along with some chloroform
leave in a warm place and let solvent evaporate
DO NOT do this if your item is varnished (or painted) as the varnish will lift, fine on waxed or just old timber items an does not affect platina.

I have used a large barn beam for a mantle and where it had some splits I noticed sawdust accumulating after a time. The beam did have some small holes so I sprayed it with Raid bug spray and that stopped the sawdust, and now a year later nothing.
