Has someone used this Brownells tool with an underlug barrel?

Look at the PDF directions available in an icon above the product description in the catalog/website.

I'd image cut the setback first then file back the non critical surface to match and trial fit to check it is clearanced enough?

Are there links to manuals in Brownells USA?

The thing in this Modern World is, I can't get to Brownells USA, they redirect me to "Brownells Europe". No manuals here. But the european prices being almost double,maybe they didn't have money for manuals any more?

But : I'm sort of net-clever and managed to google myself directly to a pdf. Thank you for the tip,Greg.

Is there a Site Navigation menu at the bottom of the Brownells web page also. Click that and will display their webinar videos. Above the videos and below the gold menu bar you can select web bench videos by firearm or catagory. Go to gunsmithing. Hope that helps. Hey, when your done with it, send it my way so I don't have to order one, lol. Need to set back a S&W model 65 barrel.

No videolinks here.

Is this a proper tool for the job when the user (me) is below average intelligence and not exceptionally technically oriented? I understand there is quite a bit of other tools involved. But it looks to me that I might be hitting Brownells tool shelves big time.

Maybe even a semipro lathe.
