ctw sounds like he has a receiver wrench for Savage 1899, 99's. I wonder what it looks like. One gye uses two thick 1" slabs of aluminum on either side of the action for lever actions, likely supported in the middle w/a 3rd piece ,shoring up the inside of the action. I wanted to say I had a SRC .303 that had a pipe wrench used in a failed attempt to remove the barrel. It would be nice to think there is enough meat left around the chamber to support the likely lower pressures of the .303 Savage. Someday soon? I 'll put up a picture -pipe wrench teeth aren't too deep- - in my mind. ( Maybe if I peen everything back in place everything will be Ok ).
