I posted this over on another forum and haven't had any feedback yet, so I thought I would try it here....
Need some ideas on tweaking the extractor on a 91 Argentine to work more reliably with the smaller than normal 35 Rem cartridge. It feeds good, but often fails to extract.
I realize the rim diameter of the 35 Rem is smaller than the standard .473. Is it possible to remove some metal on the underside of the extractor at the bolt face end so it sits lower and thereby allowing a better bite on the rim?
Anybody have any experience modifing these to fit the 35 Rem/
