Hey BoilerUp, How have you been?
GACop. I think he was asking about extraction and ejection.

Short or long action the distance between the breech and the ejection port is the thing that kicks the extraction and ejection in the arse. That short case seems to give Savage boltheads with the extractor/ejector design fits when it comes to getting it to the port before it falls off. Finding a way to make a standing ejector might be a plus. I know Fred will come along with the right answer soon.
