Re: EXTRACTOR Rifles for Dangerous Game

Mac,

As I recall, Taylor didn't want the "ping" of an ejector because he had stalked into a herd of elephants to get the bull. He thought the "ping" would cause the cows to stomp the crap out of him. Maybe I don't remember perfectly, but I think he was worried about the cows.

But that was Taylor. He certainly knew what he was talking about.

bulldog563,

I won't argue that somebody can "re-program" to single triggers. I just don't have the mentality to switch from double triggers to single triggers at a whim. If I shoot a DT gun, I just shoot and think nothing about the gun. If I shoot a ST trigger gun I have to concentrate on the triggers. If I am concentrating on the triggers, I am not concentrating on the target. If I concentrate on the target, I pull the trigger guard on the second shot. I'm sure if I were programed for ST guns (such as semi's) I would just keep pulling without moving my finger. Whether a ST on a DR is ok, I'll not say. I think they are ugly as hell. A DT on a shotgun gives me the instant choice of barrels. I wouldn't have a ST on a shotgun for any reason.

But who am I to say? Just another opinion.

Regards,
Curl
