Is this the correct extractor for the MKIII?
Is this the correct VQ extractor for the MKIII? MidwayUSA's website is a little confusing on that point.

MK70ss, to me for a $12 part it's money well spent if you are getting jams.
Extractor needs to hold the bottom of the casing against the bolt face to eject properly. Now I can shoot just about any ammo with no problems in a pistol that was jamming probably once per mag before the enhancement.
just my 2 cents

In case you haven't already seen this, here's a how-to for extractor replacement http://www.guntalk-online.com/detailstrip.htm#extractor

Timely post for me. I went to order the Volquartsen extractor from Midway tonight for my Ruger Mark 3 and I also was confused. Midway only carries the Volquartsen p/n VC10EE exact edge extractor and states it fits both the Ruger 10/22 and Ruger Mark 2. But if you go to the Volquartsen website, they show 2 different exact edge extractors. A p/n VC10EE for the Ruger 10/22 and a p/n VC2EE for the Ruger Mark 2 and 3. That almost implies that VQ has a different extractor, one for the 10/22 and one for the Mark 3. Or it's the same extractor, just their way of tracking sales? I thought about giving VQ a call but with it being the holidays, I'll have to wait. Based on what has been posted here, I'm going to order the VQ p/n VC10EE from Midway.
Midway may have them labeled separately for inventory control, or they may have the 10/22 spring out of the package for the Mark IIs. Take a look at this web page Rimfire Sports & Custom They have the same extractor labeled as both part numbers. The extractor hook is the same for both models. The package will come with a warning label affixed saying to reuse your extractor spring because the one in the kit is for the 10/22. This vendor also offers free shipping.

Bullseye, I went to the Rimfire S&C website you indicated and I see that there, they do indeed show both VQ part numbers. Right after I posted, I sent my order in to Midwest and I had some other items to order from them anyway. But, I did put Rimfire S&C into my favorites for future consideration. Thanks for clearing this up.

Well I replaced the stock extractor in my Mark III with the VQ ExactEdge model. It went in easy enough, took about a half hour total to swap out. I am gonna shoot a bullseye match tonight and see if this solves my ejection issues with this gun. Cross your fingers, Don't want any more alibis......
There is no free ride, no one said it'd be easy
