[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1928706, member: 2736"] With the correct tools you can remove any barrel and not mark it. The barrel vise has to fit the contour and a soft buffer (Brass or copper) needs to protect the barrel finish. If the tools are correct and the fit is good the barrel will not slip in the barrel vise. slipping/rotating is normally the cause of marring. I also recommend a 4 lb rubber mallet to strike the action wrench and shock the connection loose instead of a cheater and lots of torque. (Normally this will result in the barrel turning in the barrel vise damaging the barrel finish). J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
