[QUOTE="fairchaser, post: 5756533, member: 10373"] I had a breech plug gall when I didn’t use antiseize. My stupidity. I was able to put it in a vise and put a 6 point socket and by working it back and forth, break it free. Lesson learned. If you can put the barrel in a vise and get a purchase on the plug, don’t be afraid to go tight then loose. An induction heater could also apply some heat. Best of luck! [/QUOTE]
