WHEELER ENGINEERING SAVAGE BARREL WRENCH

I ordered this kit to remove the barrel from a savage 110. Smooth nut style, so I had to use the rounded type wrench part and brass shim, which came in this kit. I could not get the wrench tight enough around the barrel nut to turn it without slipping, so I kept increasing bolt tension on the wrench itself but it eventually snapped. Turns out, if you are not re-using the factory barrel nut anyway, you can just use a pipe wrench and remove it easily, it just scuffs it up a bit. I'm sure this kit works great on the other style barrel nuts.
