Anyone around Winston have an internal style action wrench I can borrow for a savage (Remington)? Putting a budget (ish) build together and I’d rather not drop $75+ for one use if I don’t have to.
Take a socket on a belt sander and thin down the walls then use a power handle. I used a lathe later after I had one to do one but my first one I used a sander.Toby..... is that to remove the barrel nut? I've got a 742 I need to take down for a friend, do some cleaning and replace the extractor clip on the bolt face but can't find a wrench that will fit between the rails.
No, and I cut the size off the one I have so it would be pretty hard to tell exactly.I had thought about that but was afraid the walls would be too thin to hold. Do you remember what size socket you used? I thought I had read somewhere a 25/32 but that just sounded strange.
Looks like 25/32" = 19.8438mm so a thin diameter 20mml 12pt or 6pt open end should work with a little modification. A thin wall 20mm socket should work also.I had thought about that but was afraid the walls would be too thin to hold. Do you remember what size socket you used?
