I was shooting the 3GN Long Range match at VIR yesterday and my extractor broke on the second stage.
It's an AA barrel and bolt with about 7-800 rounds down the tube, mostly factory 123 Amax. Is this a common problem? Just googling, it appears that it's not uncommon. It sucks because I was was having a pretty good match. 1 division stage win, and was burning the second down when my rifle crapped out. I've shot 3 gun and tactical matches for 4-5 year and have run 556 and 308 rifles as hard as they can be run and have never had an extractor break.
