    IMHO, price seems pretty good especially with extractor inserts.

    I've used Sprinco in multiple bolts - extractor and ejector springs. All performed fine. I think rust is less of an issue if you keep a rifle lubricated.
    I’m not claiming its rust that caused that. I don’t know what did. The rust that I have noted is on the action (buffer) springs, not extractor springs, that I know of.

    From living in Florida, Arizona, New Mexico, New Jersey, and Montana...I've never had a Sprinco spring rust or fail in 10+ years with basic maintenance and lubrication in any season or environment. Not stay at home setups. My experience only.
