Default Protecting my muzzleloader

I have a CVA Kodiak that I've had for about 8 years now. Because of conflicts with family and work I haven't been out for two years to use it. Today I pulled it out of the gun safe and was unhappy to find a good amount of rust/corrosion on the action. I ran a patch down the barrel and it came up with a little bit of rust as well.

My fault for not checking more often, but is there a good oil or preservative I can coat the metal with to avoid this from getting worse? It's a good accurate weapon and I don't want to have to replace it any time soon if I can avoid it.

Thanks,
