Reply With QuoteI've seen action wrenches with the top block having a piece of steel that fits into the slot on the barrel nut. IIRC Brownells carries a top block for their barrel wrench that is made that way. I've also seen someone on Ebay who sells them as well.
All,
Curious if there are different types of action wrenchs for the savage out there and which one may be prefered? I have seen what I will call the typcail one you can find on midway and such...but there is a youtube video of a guy removing a barrel...his action wrench seems to have a cut out for the recoil lug but the ones I have found such as the one on midway does not. Wonder if he has a different kind I have not found or maybe its an older model or something. Any help would be appreciated!

Mine has a slot cut for the recoil lug. It does not have a space cut for the little index button on the lug. I never paid attention to that before and it has never been a problem. I might grind away a little spot there myself. Don't remember where I got it from, but Jim's at Northland Shooters Supply is the least expensive that I know of and he does not do anything that isn't FIRST Class. I would go with his with utmost confidence.

Mine is from NSS and has a lug cutout and uses one of the action screws, it works very well!
+3 for NSS action wrench - It is top quality along with the barrel nut wrench and Jim is a pleasure to deal with and shipping is quick.
+4 for the NSS wrench. Top quality and Jim is great to deal with

I'm the Boss. I make sure what she wants gets done.
Called Jim at NSS and he was definitely a pleasure to work with. Thanks everyone!
