I got an AIAW and a looking at brownells fro a good barrel action block that I can just clamp in my bench vice.

there are so many barrel vices listed that I dont really know what im looking for.

Does anyone have hand good suggestions. My vice is standard 4".

can I also use a set of brownells go and nogo gauge set ($50 is cheaper then AIs)

Also I guess ill need an action wrench.

Any suggestions would really be nice.

Doubtful that there would be as good advice there as there would be here...especially if Scott, Stacey, or Tom could suggest a vise.


<span style="font-weight: bold">beenjammin</span>...I'd shoot Scott or Stacey a PM and see what they recommend if nobody with first-hand knowledge chimes in.

ETA: As long as you don't mix and match gauges between mfg's you're good to go...yup, Brownell's are just fine.
