I do have a problem messing around with old mauser rifles. As stated previously you must feed from the mag for them to function.Try to slip a round into the action and close the bolt hard and your screwed. Not so with my other mauser knock off actions.Never had an extractor failure with a Win 70 either.I'm sure Brownell probably offers a quality grade extractor for Win 70's.

Anyone out there have extractor/feeding failures with Win Mdl 70's??

Is the Heym or Mauser factory rifle the best mauser type action out there short of a custom gun?? What makes 'em better??
