I think that depends on you and the metal work on the gun.
Now is the time to also think are you going to add any stipple of some sort or capping to the pistol grip.
You could also think about adding extra features to the stock.
I would go with a tester to the back of the stock first behind the butt pad when it comes to stain or colour.

Yes I know what is involved as I have done a fair bit of stock work over the years.
You will also need to make sure you fill the grain before you stain m8 then rub down and wax.
The wax I have always used is Lord Sheratons.
