Jim Klein's no.....269.729.4407. Call him and discuss his stains and I believe he's got 3 colors and the oranger toner. Appox. $4.75 a bottle so it's inexpensive to make your own chart....Fred

Justa about all of these are done with some combination of Dangler's stains.

Here is a Peter Berry rifle I built in 2000 from Homer Dangler, I used his stain and brown. This photo was taken in 2008 as you can see (I hope) the color has held up well.

Wow! That's a beautiful piece of wood and the Dangler {Klein} stains really accentuated the curl. I did the same combination of stains but it came out more reddish brown w/ some yellow and good curl contrast.....possibly addt'l rubbing out would produce something similar to yours, but my wood wasn't as curly. Nice work on all the pictured guns.....Fred

Fred,
There aren't words to describe how scared I was after the second application of orange stain. I really thought I had just screwed the pooch on this one.
After adding the darker stain, then rubbing it back with alcohol soaked rags, a little tung oil and wham. I was very happy with how it turned out.

Ken....why did you have to go and do that? Now I'm confused and want to build a LR something like yours, if that's possible. In addition to good architecture etc., your guns show a lot of attention to detail....especially the inletting....Mind if I contact you for some suggestions on components?.....Fred
