I've never had that much trouble either. I just used protected vise jaws directly on the flats of the barrel and the wrench goes on the action...I don't think heat should be applied. That could change the receiver...? How about a short extension on the handle?

Mind you, my vise was purchased to pull Thompson barrels so it's big. Maybe just more soaking time. If it moved at all then it wants to come off.
