Clean your bedding area down to bare wood. Use acetone to dissolve the oils.

That will work.!  or you can strip to bare wood, wet the area & apply heat, wipe the oil off as is comes out of the wood..

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but a good Belguim 98 should be more than adequate for the 25-06.
