So here's a question: is the discussion here that push feed is bad, or is it that the Remmy circlip extractor is bad?
Curiosity seriously took hold of me and after a brief trip to my vault, I have observed that both my Sako mod 75 as well as my one remaining Weatherby MK V are both full on push feeds, but both have a claw extractor, substantially more significant looking than the near invisible Remington circlip extractor. Both these rifles feed like butter and give me great confidence and I have no fear of piling a second cartridge into an already occupied chamber. My Sako mod 85 did accompany me on a DG hunt as my backup rifle and it's merely an "almost" CRF with a claw extractor. (I hunted with a rimmed cartridge double rifle)
