My stainless 375 was dropping a single loaded fired case off the boltface as I opened the bolt.Upon inspection I found a chip off the claw.I guess the previous owner had a habit of snapping the extractor over the rim of a case.Supposed to be a Williams machined steel extractor as it has m-r letters on the underside.It ejects perfect when there are rounds in the magazine due to the upward pressure on the fired case coming out.Anyone know where I can get an extractor? Would one from a Portugeuse gun fit?

The easy answer is ebay. Why do none of you guys look there?
$54.99 with free shipping. Kind of a no brainer.

I have a factory take-off from my SS NH 375 H&H that I would give you but I am halfway between my Texas place and my Idaho place and won't be back to it until September.

I thought I might have an extra stainless Williams but I do not. eBay is definitely a fast way to get back in service if you can live with blued. It’s not a Williams unit - if you care. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2849447484...r=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I sure wish finding a stainless Williams extractor was as easy as looking on eBay! They are pretty much unobtainium!

If you are breaking them, you are doing something wrong. A factory extractor should last you a lifetime. Especially the way most guys don't shoot around here.

Especially if you always load from the magazine. For me, the Williams extractor is like Sunny Hill bottom metal and a few gunsmith touches that I’ve always liked doing to rifles I hunt with. Probably doesn’t make a real difference but it makes me feel better.

That really doesn't look "chipped" so much as Dremeled!

Weird! Maybe a bad heat treat or something.
And yes, the BACO extractors will interchange with the older versions.
