Smarter guys than me on here point out that the Sako/M16 extractor requires a cut that weakens the "Three Rings of Steel" and a popped primer can do some pretty serious damage to a shooter's face. Dunno if it's really a problem, but I've only had one problem with Remington extractor... a 788 in 7-08, military .308 brass improperly necked down with too-hot loads (not my rifle or loads).

A solution in search of a problem, IOW...
