Action Wrenches - SAC vs Impact

[FNG1001]

I recently picked up an Impact 737r action. Looking forward to using it and swapping out barrels.
Which action wrench is the preferred option? I've narrowed my choices to (open to alternatives too):

• Impact Precision 737 Action Wrench: https://impactprecisionshooting.com...sion-737-action-wrench?variant=12334764556311
• SAC MODULAR ACTION WRENCH – (Model 1): https://shortactioncustoms.com/product/modular-action-wrench-kit/

My experience with SAC quality and their customer services has been very good, but an action wrench created by the Impact also had me thinking.

I’d go impact

Anyone use Bugholes action wrench? They do great work, and curious if their action wrench is worth it over any other.

The Bugholes R700 action wrench will not work with the impact action. We do make an Impact action wrench but it’s not listed on the website. We sell a few here and there when impact is out of stock (not trying to compete with them). our impact wrench is made from 17-4 and perfectly fitted to the impact action, it’s the same price as our R700 wrench.

I would avoid the sac wrench. $75 "warranty" replacement. Going to get bugholes from now on.

If you get the SAC wrench be sure you get the right head. I had to modify mine to work with a Surgeon because of the anti bind rail. SAC makes really nice stuff, but I’d probably go with the Impact if that’s all you’re gonna use it on.

I would try to get the Bugholes wrench if I could.

No reason not to use the impact. Its made by the same people who make your action. No brainer.

I have nothing bad to say about my SAC wrench. She's never let me down after a few factory tikka barrels that were installed by silverback gorillas.

I also enjoy the SAC wrench. Swapping from Lone Peak/Impact to Bat and just swapping the bumpers is painless.

Do you have an impact wrench for LH 737?

Do you have an impact wrench for LH 737?

I’m 99% certain it will work for both right and left
we did eventually make a line item on the site so they are available now for sale

The site indicates they only work for RH.

 

[Bugholes]

The description is incorrect- it will work for right or left
I’ll fix the description tomorrow

Also a no brainer to trust the guy putting the barreled action together.

I got a bugholes wrench for a tikka that is already chipped. No thanks.
