I need an extractor for a Rem 722 in 222 Rem. The existing extractor seems to have lost its springyness and will no longer reliably extract cases. They will eventually come out after 2 to 4 trys but this is exasperating. The extractor is intact although the extractor tooth may be a little worn but I don't have anything to compare to.
What are my options?
Nobody seems to have one. Numrich or the sources listed in the Rem web page.
I've read the many posts on the safety implications of the Sako mod. Brownell's and Tubb's still sell them but does anyone still install them?
I've also seen pictures of an AR-15 style installation. Does it work? From a safety point of view is it better or worse than a Sako?
I really don't want to replace the bolt both from an expense point of view and I like the look of the 722 bolt.
Sorry about all the questions. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
