I've seen two Sauers with broken extractors, both in 30-06 and that pretty much turned me off to them. I also don't like beaver tail forearms and 3000 one i've looked at had the BT forearm... A guy on another forum has two Sauers, and he likes them and says they are a great drilling, so i guess there's two differing opinions...
I don't know anything about the other brand...
How about Krieghoff? I've sure found the ones i've had to be reliable and accurate.
Doug sure let a nice one get away.... Shame on you Doug! ha ha ha
