[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2005391, member: 10755"] I’d say that it is virtually impossible to get anywhere near any stretch with a barrel vise set-up. If you use a proper action vise and a barrel wrench, then it is possible to get stretch on the threads, but again, this is not needed or recommended. Galling of the mating surfaces is a real possibility and have witnessed this on a Howa action and also a Weatherby Vanguard, both stainless models. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
