Dennis did you ever hear anything back from Winchester?
This is an LC 97 .223 case head that failed when my friend Den was prairie dog hunting.
The poor gas routing of his new Rem700 hurt his eye.
He had to drive a long way to find a doctor.
I did not but I believe they contacted him and all the brass they tested of his was within hardness specs... I think the consensus is some polishing media in the case...
To me that appears it had a different extractor than the original 700 extractor. Can you confirm that?
Alinwa,
What am I missing here, in the two photos in the beginning of this
thread, There is no sako extractor
To me that appears it had a different extractor than the original 700 extractor. Can you confirm that?
So we are blaming this on walnut shell pieces or just quit trying to find the answer? Is he still shooing the same load??
