[QUOTE="Lee Goodwin, post: 1837706, member: 107289"] Old thread, I know... [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.gunpartscorp.com/products/634810[/URL] Also, if your bolt won't quite close, or sometimes does, and sometimes doesn't, like my 721 , 270 bolt face, try looking at the head of the brass and see if it is getting torn up trying to push past the "tooth" of the extractor. If so, trying polishing the crap out of the brass head, so that, on insertion of the cartridge into battery, that extractor tooth, will slide over the brass and still grab the brass by the rim for extraction. If you can't easily modify the extractor, maybe you can create a slight chamfer on the brass head to get past that nasty little extractor. The extractor doesn't look like much, but that little bastard will extract pretty well as long as you don't take too much off the brass head rim. Just polish it good with 0000 steel wool. Do 20 rounds, see how it goes. [/QUOTE]
