Pilgrim, welcome to NitroExpress. I have had one Ruger #1 that would fail to eject about 1 out of 5 times. The extractor would jump the case head. It was a .375 H&H that I soon traded off. Aside from that the Ruger #1 has a different type of extractor than a Double so any comparison is not applicable. I have a .223 that works perfectly and shoots the same so I am not anti Ruger.

I am not mechanically minded so any time litle dinky springs and pop up levers are involved I worry, particularly on a rifle the may have to save my life. I have known too many marginal PH's to trust any of them to save my ass if it comes to that.

On a smaller plainsgame type rifle I see no need to give it a second thought but keep in mind that when the extractor on a Double breaks the shell will have to be manually removed everytime.

450#2

I always scratch my head when I see 'affordable ammunition' in the same paragraph as 'Double Rifle'. It is sort of like saying "I'm going to spend $70,000 on a car because it gets good gas mileage so it will be cheap to run.

Have good and safe trip and I look forward to the report on how well your rifles behaved.
