I found out the hard way long ago during the Spring Bear hunt that bug spray containing Deet will make your gun stocks gummy.
Good Luck & Good Hunting !

This is how bad mine became. Touching the stock at all left the sticky coating on your hands. Like melting plastic. I tried a few different solvents to see if I could remove the entire coating myself but couldnt find anything that worked.

Just noticed my Sako A7 .308 softtech stock has become tacky. It doesn't melt to the extent of yours Lowbanks, But if it gets any worse I don't know if I could use it. Gun is atleast 10 years old but only used once. Wonder if I have warranty or not....

There is a current thread on gunnutz about the same problem with the A7. Sounds like dealing with Stoeger isn't as easy as dealing with Browning. My A7 is a roughtech pro that has a Bell and Carlson stock so I may have avoided this issue.
