As requested Cadeau here are some pictures of my Webley Patriot .22, as you can see even the Beech Stock finish is high quality. I just used some stock wax to buff up the shine.

Choices, choices
Personally I think the beech is a better choice for hunting airgun. The 350 is a great gun and was my #2 choice, however I really dislike plastic on a 600.00 rifle and I preferred the heavier stock and deeper bluing of the Patriot. Webley being sold off does not worry me due to the sheer number of tuners out there working on them and I do know this gun with it's old world wood and steel will be passed down the line in my family for many years. Both the Patriot and 350 cost about the same and perform as the true magnum springers they are. I just wanted an airgun that was a little rarer, a little more old school European craftsmanship. Whitewolf, Scott C, and myself I am sure would not part with our Webleys as whenever I shoot mine powderburners always say they have never seen such a big well built airgun.
Good luck, and remember both are excellent choices in.22 or.25.
