Bartlein Barrel, Muzzle Device removal and Rocksett?

[vegas]

Hey all,

This one might be a stupid question but here goes; I have a suppressor muzzle device Rocksetted to my Bartlein MTU barrel in 6 Creed. Typically, placing the device in a pot of boiling water on the stove (shhh, don't tell the wife) yields an easy removal. I am assuming that the heat from boiling the end of the barrel will not affect the barrel in anyway? I have done this before on short range AR's where precision is less of a concern but this will be first time on one of my bolt guns.

Thanks in advance.

Not at the temp water boils. A heat gun might be easier, too.

It's water soluble, so you can just soak it in warm water if boiling water worries you.

I never really had good luck with just warm water. Perhaps I didn't soak it long enough?

How long did you soak it? It takes at least an overnight...

Probably a couple of hours, not much more.
