Factory Barrel Removal and Viper vice hack

Tikka barrel 1
Internal action wrench 0

At least I know that I got the vice tightened down enough.
The internal wrench I have specifically says don’t attempt use for barrel removal (think it had a 80lb limit). Mine is designed to sheer to avoid internal damage on the action.

Not positive your model, but the external wrench “should” be able to apply much more torque.

I only use the internal to torque on new barrels.
