What is the BROWNELLS - Complete Remington 700 Action Wrench?
The only commercially available action wrench system that surrounds and supports the receiver ring and recoil lug to distribute potentially damaging torque forces equally. The solid steel base has a unique, machined ­relief to clear the recoil lug on most Mauser-type bolt action rifles and, the individual, bolt-on Heads are machined to provide an exact fit around and against the receiver ring or barrel nut for each of the firearm models listed. Together, they support the receiver in a ring of steel and greatly increase the amount of surface gripping area to totally eliminate twisted bolt “ways” or damaged, ruined receivers. This is the most advanced, complete, professional-quality, Action Wrench System. With it, you can prevent expensive receiver damage on MOST popular rifle actions, including military models, plus, models for selected handguns. Two-piece head completely encircles cylindrical style action for 100% surface contact. Upper Head in­dexes on the forward guard screw and positions recoil lug properly during barrel installation. Includes both heads and longer bolts. Fits all Remington actions with receiver diameter of 1.355'. Double-angle design accepts factory lug or Tubb and Shilen ­tapered design.

Excellent Tool
I just finished using the action wrench heads to remove a barrel. One blow and I was done. I will definitely buy a complete set for my small ring Mauser.

Rem. 700 Action Wrench by Brownells
My first trip to the range this spring I brought "fire formed" reloaded ammo for the wrong rifle. My first round / cartridge got seriously stuck in the rifles chamber. I decided that was a good excuse to change out the original Rem. 700 barrel with a new replacement. I ordered a Brownells Rem.700 action wrench and it worked beautifully. I carefully locked my original barrel in a "Viper" vise using small aluminum shims fabricated from flashing material. Installed a 1-1/2" long 1/4"-28 grade 8 hex bolt (from Ace Hardware.) into the action wrench to hold half the action wrench head to the receiver until I finished assembling the whole wrench to the receiver. Helps align the recoil lug to the receiver. Using a 24" breaker bar, made out of 1-1/4" black pipe, I was able to break free the receiver using about 80 lbs. of torque. Replaced the original barrel with a Rem/Age barrel using a Savage barrel nut wrench and the Brownells action wrench. The whole operation, from beginning to finish, went smoothly and flawlessly. Right tool for the job made all the difference. Now I'm thinking about swapping out two other Rem. 700 barrels. Great tool and it does the job flawlessly. Highly recommend.

The Best Action Wrench You Can Buy
I purchased this with the Remington 700 heads, and absolutely am in love with this tool! I absolutely love the cut-out for the recoil lug to keep it aligned properly when installing the barrel. Keep in mind that the cut-out is slighly wider than a factory Remington lug, and must be shimmed in order to keep it perfect. If you are using an aftermarket lug with tapered sides, the fit is outstanding! I've used this to assemble/disassemble dozens of 700's so far, and this wrench has yet to even scratch one! The indexing hole that accepts an action screw is a nice touch - just be sure to order an extra screw to use with the wrench, because really really stubborn actions can slightly warp the screw. I'd rather replace a $3 screw than to have the wrench slip on the receiver! I was using the Surgeon barrel wrench, but after getting in an older 700 which ultimately required heat and 250+ ft.lbs or torque to break loose - the Surgeon tool would have mangled the receiver! I have yet to see ANY other action wrench out there better than this one! Also, be sure to get a matching Brownell's Barrel Vise!
