Marlin Buckhorn,SASS 51727 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I will help you out Rootin! Don't be so cheap and buy some new brass. They don't separate as easily! But I have no broken shell extractors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rootin Tootin Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 Thanks for the advice Marlin.......Chuck and I have 4 to 5000 casings and just bought 1000 Starline for big matches exclusively... Some of the others may be getting worn and we do the best to pull em before they break, when loading up on the 550. So far so good, but you never know when that one will pop up and I want to be prepared. Must go back to BS days. Always good to hear from you my friend.....RT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Lassiter and Shotgun Boogie sell them. Here is the Shotgun Booger version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Ron Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Howdy, A broken shell is one rotten thing about shooting. The case extractors I see on the market are made for one caliber only. And most rifles have very little room to work. Maybe some of the gunsmiths will have an answer that doesn't cost 20 bucks a caliber.

Goody, SASS #26190 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Carry a brass squib rod and proper size lead ball. Drive it through from the muzzle and it will remove the broken case most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
