For hunting deer, elk, moose, bear, etc. in America, I personally hate ejectors. I have used double rifles with ejectors, and learned to hate the "ping" of ejectors, that alarms animals to where I am. You see, shooting one or two rounds doesn't alert animals to where you are, as the big boom bounces around the hills, but ejector "pings" alerts animals to where you are, as the direction of those sort of sounds are detected easily by animals). To have to look around the brush for fired cartridge cases, as a handloader, is a pain too. In 99% of real hunting situations, you are going to get only one or two shots off at big game animals, before they run off, and, fact is, that you need only one or two shots anyway to collect game, so reloading a double and shooting more than 2 shots is really not needed, if you are a good skilled hunter, and you should be, so ejectors are not needed the vast majority of the time. Ejectors are wonderful, if on a shotgun, shooting pheasant, doves, upland birds, and ducks/geese, but not good on a rifle. I have used non ejector double rifles, and found the experience more desirable, so I no longer use ejectors on rifles at all.
