[QUOTE="Edd, post: 1412530, member: 30592"] Surgeon usually grinds their M16 extractors to prevent the cases from hitting the turret but sometimes the case will flip 180° when ejected and the case will hit the back of the ejection port. This is not uncommon with M16 style extractors. I recently purchased a new 591 action and opted to use a Remington style extractor to avoid this issue, I think the fix for the case flipping issue is to weaken the ejector spring or shorten the plunger. If they are hitting the turret, the fix is to bevel the top side of the extractor. You can google dented cases with M16 extractors and read all day. [/QUOTE]
