Re: Replacing a Rem 700 extractor
Like Sally said on prom night, "Just slide it right in"!
Seriously, there's a little lip that the extractor fits under, but the extractor slips right in and is easier in practice than it sounds. Just be careful not to bend the new one - it doesn't require much force to snap it into place. And don't reuse an old one, once they come out they are sprung and won't work correctly.

Re: Replacing a Rem 700 extractor
no it didnt fail, it was to "long" and was ripping right through the case rims, and after some time with the dremel and a few hundred rounds later it didnt get any better. I ordered a new one and fitted it in there and it works like a charm now. Big Green's QC has gone down the shitter
