[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1620255, member: 38048"] The guy that got mauled by the bear had a pressure issue for sure. Either too hot a load or a barrel ubstruction of some kind. I've never been able to pull an extractor through a piece of brass with my bare hands. I get guns all the time that are locked up tight from an over pressure event and I always need a mallet to tap it open. I have never had any kind of extractor pull completely through a rim. If you over pressure a round hard enough to pull a rim apart you are also close to blowing up your action. I'm 6ft1 230 pounds and know for 100% certainty I can't pull a bolt handle hard enough to break through a rim with my hands. On the other hand if a brown bear was running at me maybe my super human strength would show up. Then I could ditch the gun and be able to outrun the guide. Shep [/QUOTE]
