Re: .375 H&H to .375 Flanged conversion

In reply to:
By my informal questioning, I've come up with exactly zero that have heard of or seen a belted cartridge slip by the ejector. Of course, I welcome the opportunity to stand corrected if anyone can point to a specific case in which this has happened.
Personally, I still believe this stems from John Taylor's writings in which he identified the theoretical scenario in which it could happen.
IMO regarding rimless or belted cartridges, much has to do with how well the extractor is designed and made.
An extractor for a flanged case can be made poorly and yet still function well but the same cannot be said for a poorly made extractor for a rimless case.
From what I've seen, some doubles chambered for rimless cases work fine where extraction is concerned.
The rimless cases in double rifle thing is IMO similar to some of the other supposed no-no things like single triggers, O/U's, ejectors etc.
