[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 2004862, member: 2736"] If you want consistent results, You should have some system that is repeatable. You don't "Have to" torque the barrel down to 65 Ft/lbs + if you keep an eye on the tightness and don't wait until it gets lose to re tighten it. In order to remain consistently made up, some torque is needed. If you want to be able to switch barrels by hand, Your original idea of a hand wrench and/or barrel nut with flats on it was a good one and is the best way to achieve consistent performance short of torquing in my opinion.
