Favorite rear entry Remington 700 action wrench

[806guns]

Whats your favorite rear entry Remington 700 action wrench? Tired of having to take off my scope bases everytime i change barrels on a action. Lots of options out there just seeing which one you guys use the most and like the best.

Bugholes

Pick one that works only on the front ring raceways. You don't want to twist your receiver.

Bugholes and Viper Den both have good wrenches…if I was just starting my wrench collection (because that’s what this becomes) I’d do the SAC’s modular because it’s less space to take up.

I like the T-handle style for glue-ins. I made one like the bugholes but use the T-handle more.
Not where I purchased mine. Thought it came from Sinclair's.

I have a homemade one, a Defiance, and a Surgeon. The Surgeon is my favorite.

I haven't used the Surgeon wrench on a 700 and it isn't a rear entry but I believe it will work.

How do you use that with a torque wrench?

You use the basics of torque. Force * distance.

I use a Short Action Custom, they say it is kinder to the action. It works fine. However they warn you not to use it to break loose a factory barrel (unless it's a nutted barrel). I think the maximum torque they list it for is 100 ft lbs. I haven't used any other rear entry wrench so I cannot compare.

Torque wrench? I don't need a torque wrench.
