RE: Ejectors vs. Extractors
There is no right or wrong answer, rather it is what you prefer.
I have both ejector and extractor guns and each serve a useful purpose. Extractor guns are great for all the reasons cited above, but personally I have no problems whatsoever catching empty hulls from an ejector gun. Most high end doubles are/were equipped with ejectors and the way I look at it---if I'm going to invest several grand into creating a custom dream gun it's going to be done utilizing an ejector gun as the basis.

Thanks for your comments. I just finished reading McIntosh's chapter on ejectors. Your post mirrors his thoughts.
Take care.
