Hey, thought my handgaurd was loose as it would rotate slightly. I haven't shot it yet.
After looking closer(from inside the action) the barrel is rotating slightly(the amount of play in the barrel to receiver index pin) with the handgaurd so the nut must have been moving too.
Pop the Handguard off, I was able to loosen the barrel nut just by putting one of my random barrel nut adapters on it (without and ratchet or bar on it yet just the adapter).
My handgaurd is a 2 bolt clamp style, without the 3d printed part.
Thoughts on barrel nut torque? Looks like the same setup as a AR, my barrel holding device (one end in a vice, other end in the barrel where the bolt would go) seems to fit in the barrel the same as a AR15, would it just be the same as a AR? Maybe 45 and call it good?
