Nope. Wont work.

You also need an action block and a very strong table vise.

pipe wrench if you don't mind your nut getting a little marred up.

I was told I could use the three prong castle nut wrench after I had already ordered the DD tool. I kept the order just in case & I'm glad I did because the castle nut wrench does not fit the barrel nut. You need the DD tool. I got mine for $18 from Operation Parts. Good luck.
