[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2132980, member: 63925"] Good suggestion. Standard Wheeler barrel vise and action wrench. Monster wrench from Walmart for trailer hitch balls that lets you torque crap out of vise. Rosin. Every chemical known to mankind for penetration. 4' cheater bar, BFH anvil hammer that is out of pic. So I also realized I was approaching the thread soak all wrong. I mixed up Kroil, PB and acetone into SS container and injected the mixture through the front base hole with small syringe and now standing barrel receiver down. I did this on my 52 yr old Savage and it worked great. Guess brain cramp is only answer. I just checked barrel and I am now seeing penetrant seeping out around the recoil lug!!! So I think I am getting real close to breaking it free now. I hate the wood blocks and looking to buy a good set of aluminum barrel blocks. Suggestions? The Wheeler ones with urethane inside coating does not thrill me. Note my lucky horseshoe! It is leftover from another lifetime and I keep it close!
