I am looking for an action wrench to remove the barrel from a Howa mini action. It is a flat bottom action with a similar radius around the top to a Remington 700. I understand that a Remington 700 action wrench works with one of the half's flipped over to use the flat edge on the flat bottom of the action. I also see an inside style wrench that uses the bolt channels inside the action.
What do people prefer, and inside or outside wrench design? No idea how tight that barrel is going to be, but Howa barrels have a reputation for being tight, so I if one of those designs is preferable for getting a tight barrel started, that would be very helpful info.
