[QUOTE="John Ricks, post: 2121083, member: 1329"] I do it this way. Made the barrel vise in 1972 when I did a lot of work with the 'ol ugly P14 and P17 Enfields. Never had one slip in the vise, always got the action off. The socket wrench is 3/4" drive with a 30 inch handle. Clamp bolts are 1" diameter aircraft engine mount bolts, stronger than grade 8 bolts. Blocks made from 4140 alloy. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/1JGzVPY.jpg[/IMG] M700 Remington. Note the lug that goes into the magazine well. On the barrel side of the action wrench is a lug indexer. The round bar in the receiver protects against crushing. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/tcl9Nqe.jpg[/IMG] Action wrenches for M700 Rem, Mauser, and M70 Win/ p-14 and P-17 Enfields. I have several more for different actions. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/Jos2SsD.jpg[/IMG] This is a big Webber single shot action. File folder cardboard wrapped on the barrel prevents marring. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/xf8mYmc.jpg[/IMG] Barrel bushings in the front. Truing arbors in the back. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/cyWSPxh.jpg[/IMG] Close up of the brass bushing and the cardboard.
