I am one more...

Oddly enough--the only extractor I have had to replace was the one I changed on my Remington Custom shop --in .416--listened to all the bs ..so figured I had better change the extractor to a Sako..guess what---the piece of shit broke after less than 40 rounds--have NEVER had an original go bad..I realize they do..just find it odd it has never happened to me..

As to your final statement---when I was over there last year in Zim--of the 5 PH's in Camp--3 were shooting a .416 Remington in caliber--two had Remington actioned rifles..even I found that quite odd..while they were not used all the time, fact is, they were used..

I am not saying they are the greatest thing since sliced bread..far from it..but certainly not in need of the bashing that seems to please so many...don't see too many Ruger, sako, weatherby or other actions being used in custom guns...while the Remington dominates in those areas for middle of the road semi-custom hunting rifles.if you count $2 to $5000. rifles middle of the road..not just by coincidence I would guess..

With all my support I have given them I will probably be taken out the next time I go over and am carrying another Rem..and yes, it will again be my .416...but, we all have to go sometime and I would much rather go that way versus sitting in some fricken nursing home with drool coming out of the corner of my mouth...
