Re: Control round feed or not?

the point of CRF is not just in "upside-down" feeding, but also in the fact that the bolt will feed in one round and just one round, and only feeds the round that is grasped... in a push feed (I've done this with a 700) an imperfect of truncated stroke can lead to a double-feed (bad news), and the general notion of the size of a M700 extractor is just bad comedy... if that round is over-hot or just doesn't go off as intended, the last thing I want is a flimsy pot-metal extractor the size of a paper-clip trying to remove the problem round...

... I'm with Ray, I had a push-feed remington jam up on me deer hunting... that was the last straw. was it user error? sure, but that error can't happen with a Mauser.
