[QUOTE="bamban, post: 2618742, member: 17722"] I had the old Davidson barrel vise since I started shooting benchrest in 1980. It served me well swapping barrels. Since I started spinning my own, I found the one piece top has its limitations on occasion unscrewing factory tubes. I converted the one piece top plate to 2 piece top clamps. Enlarged the holes to allow the plates to pivot somewhat to follow the shank contour. Just like have two vises clamping on the barrel at the same time. The two other barrel vise are hardly used. I end up with these pursuing the ultimate one, they were not any better than 80s vintage one.
