masking tape, and masking tape the barrel if you care about scratches on the barrel.
Looking for successful tips to keep the bluing intact and action straight when swapping barrels. Going to be using Wheeler Action and Barrel Nut Wrench. ???
What do you protect the bluing with?
Tips to keep from twisting action or other tech. stuff??

Layer of duct tape on the contact areas of the action wrench and I wrap an old peice of tshirt around the barrel and run the nut wrench up the barrel. Dont think you would have to do anything for the nut as the teeth fit good on mine anyway.
I use shims made out of coke or beer cans - the wrench shouldn't slip so it SHOULDN'T be a problem (but the shims are there to make sure...)
I have a piece of leather in my action wrench, and use a t-shirt as described before for the barrel.
Romans 10:9 "That if you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
I do the same thing for the barrel, but use painters masking tape around the action before installing the action wrench, so it doesnt leave the sticky residue on the action from the tape.Originally Posted by groupshooter

I also use a piece of leather, 2-3-oz. vegtan in the action wrench. I don't use anything on the barrel, I'm just really careful to try to keep the barrel nut wrench off the barrel.Originally Posted by cowboyarcher

It's better to shoot for the moon and hit the fencepost than to shoot for the fencepost and hit the ground!
