BROWNELLS - Barrel Vise Only No Bushing

I bought mine with the number two solid aluminum material. Cut it in half on my bandsaw to complete my clamp for .22 rifle barrels. It works good just like I had hoped for..

Overall the vise works as it should. Even when I temporarily attached it to A frame rail?? It will ci m e in handy fir all my future plans.

Purchased to remove action from a Tikka T3x CTR 24" 6.5mm Creedmoor Bolt Action Rifle which are notoriously torqued on. ( use # 7 bushing 1.150 “) The vise is Rock Solid comes with everything except the 2 bolts to bolt it down to the bench. Uses 1/2 diameter Bolts x the length you need # 5 hardness with a 3/4 head. Used blue painters tape on action and barrel and pine rosin in bushing. I had to tighten it up to the point where I was sure I had bent the barrel to keep it from spinning ended up using a 3 ‘ cheater bar on the action wrench to break it loose. I actually picked up the side of the bench the Vice was bolted down to while removing the action Removed tape no scratches or mars on either barrel or action. For first time uses measure the barrel where the action and barrel meet. First couple of inches of barrel will determine bushing size. Several bushing options to choose from which will be a few thousands larger then your barrel more then likely. Clamp barrel closest to action for best results .

Arrived early with no damage and no parts missing.This vise is the best I found on the market from my experience.

Perfectly blued, Smooth, beautiful finish, robust.. what’s not to like!.. should do a great job if I do mine correctly.
