Our barrel vise will handle barrels from .775” to 1.375“in diameter. The powder coat finish is so durable it grips barrels like a gorilla. The powder coat finish will also NOT harm the barrel in any way and will not leave any marks whether blued or stainless. With our barrel vise there is no need for leather, spacers, cardboard or used toilet paper rolls unless from certain manufacturers, see below! The bolts are Loctite in place. Max torque on the barrel vise nuts/bolts should be 50 ft/lbs. DO NOT use an impact gun! Mounting holes are 9/16” diameter and 5.750” center to center spacing. This vise may leave marks on a Cerakote or painted barrels (use wraps of drywall tape or paper towel core to prevent paint marks) some use leather as well. This vise may crush the carbon fiber part of a carbon fiber barrel. Please do not copy our products then ask us how to use them. That in itself is quite disrespectful!
We have found when working on rifles manufactured from some companies Howa, Remington or Tikka that the action can be very tight. This is not bad, it’s just how they make their products. Viper recommends wrapping barrels of Howa, Remington and Tikka.
Viper advises wrapping the barrel when working with rifles where the torque of the action to barrel is unknown. Viper also advises wrapping the barrel when torquing the nuts over 50 lbs. This will help to prevent damage to the powder coat finish.
