[QUOTE="Jim’s Hunt, post: 2788234, member: 117033"] You have opened up an action can of worms. Numerous opinions On the subject at hand I have done 2 Savages,2 Tikka's,1 Remington 700,1 Zermatt and 2 Mac Bro's all with prefit tubes with barrel nut 7 of them had X-Caliber barrels and the Zermatt was a Criterion. Tikkas are a pain in the butt to get the barrel off as they are double tight. I use a lathe to cut an .080 deep groove .010 from action to loosen the factory barrel. Your choice all have worked great for me. Things needed are a Short Action Custom modular action wrench, a good barrel Vice, a go gauge and a piece of Scotch tape to make a no go gauge. [/QUOTE]
