[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 521052, member: 2736"] I would recomend going with a magnum boltface cartridge and a M16 style extractor because the 378 case head is very large and it doesn't leave much room for any kind of extractor except the factory Remington and they require special machining. The Remington actions are strong enough just a little on the small side for the 378 case head. I normally use a Weatherby Mark 5 action for the Lapua or 378 size case head. I to like the M16 style extractor better than the Sako. The Mark 5 uses a M16 style extractor. Just my opinion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
