Removing a Rem 700 barrel

Guys

A little off topic but ...

I am trying to get my factory 700 barrel out of the 300 Win Mag but it will not shift. Seems my hobby smith and a gunsmith in town is having the same problem with the more modern Rem 700s.

The Interweb seems to suggest that Rem uses a thread locker that needs some heat to shift it and also removing the recoil lug helps a lot.

Any real world experience/advice on what works first time/best time?
