[QUOTE="D-mon, post: 2792253, member: 1523"] Tikka barrels are some of the easiest to remove. I have done dozens and dozens. The trick is to have an aluminium sleeve matching very well the tapered contour close to the breach. My barrel clamp(2” bore diameter) goes over that sleeve. You can adjust the position of the barrel in relation to the sleeve so that the engraving is facing one of the clamping side of the sleeve. This helps for the grip. My tikka wrench is clamping the action on the flat sides of the receiver, just tight enough but not too tight. It is not necessary and creates to much tension on the threads. I have a 3 feet tube going on my action wrench handle and most barreled actions come undone very easily. [/QUOTE]
