ARE ACTUALLY USING (or have actually used) the barrel-vise-jaws being recommended.

I have a taccom ulw 15-22 barrel enroute https://taccom3g.com/product/16-ulw-barrel-for-mp-15-22/#comment-229718

along with the 15-22 barrel nut wrench and barrel extension removal tools https://www.hwsteelinc.com/

however, I need to find a set of barrel-vise-jaws that will work with 15-22 barrels.

Thanks in advance for any guidance! - BASED ON ACTUAL USER
