Action Wrench Help

[RugerSlinger]

I just sent my Stiller Predator S/A off to GAP to have a 6.5 SAUM barrel spun on to accompany my 300 SAUM barrel. I was wondering what the best action wrench was to swap barrels back and forth, links would be great. I know once I start shooting the 6.5 the 300 barrel probably wont spend much time on her but the 300 barrel shoots so damn good.

Thanks in advance

I use a PTG "rear entry" (heh) wrench to swap barrels that have been tightened to reasonable torque levels. I find this style of wrench to be quick and easy.

For breaking loose factory barrels, I use a Wheeler wrap-around wrench. It's a bit more cumbersome, but works well for those times where I have to stand on top of the workbench in order to bust loose something that was tightened to ~300 lb-ft and secured with thread locking compound.

Is this the one you are talking about?

Yes, that would be the one. Here it is in use (you can see the Wheeler wrench on the bench in the background):

I use a davidson action wrench. I've used it to remove a couple of factory barrels without issue.
