[QUOTE="Wrenches, post: 1713317, member: 93135"] I have never had to part a 700 barrel. I have a barrel vise that uses 2" long two piece split collets made from aluminum and coated with rosin. Over my 35 years in smithing business I have made tapered and split collets for almost all conceivable barrel tapers and straights. I use an action wrench that clamps around the front of the action and is bored to fit the action perfectly then split with rosin brushed on the inside. I do part all Mosin Nagant actions. I do this so I do not have to make an action wrench specifically for them. I have taken barrels off K98 Mausers that were badly rusted and was able to remove without parting them. [/QUOTE]
