Re: pro's and con's on ejectors / extractors

In reply to:
BTW, has anyone tried the 'Boddington method' of tipping the open extractor-gun 'over and out' to dump out the fired cases? What a stuff-up, throws the gun out-of-line and the shooter off-balance, and ends up with a scramble to get the new cartridges chambered. A smooth mount is then out of the question, the LAST thing you'd want in a tricky spot with DG!
I have seldom found anything educational or helpful in CB's writings, so I gave up reading the material in frustration a few years ago. Lots of words - very little info.

Bit like holding a pair of cartridges between the fingers of the forward hand. Sounds great on paper, even works OK at the club, but in the shooting field on DG...? Please!
I have used that technique in the summer hunting elephant. First, it it not useful on a stalk. I just get the rounds between my fingers during the final approach for the shoot. Second, it works a lot better if I wear a deerskin glove on my left hand. But I do not like a glove on my right hand while shootong, so I walk around with one glove like Michael Jackson.
