Rimless extraction in double rifles has been debated ad nauseum. The "purists" who mostly reside in armchairs behind keyboards, all declare rimless extraction an abomination.
On the other hand, the Germans have a century of well-crafted double rifles with rimless extraction. They work, and work well.
For 50 years at least, the Brits have offered their best double rifles in rimless cartridges such as .375 H&H. They work, and work well. A casual look on GunBroker will reveal best quality Holland & Holland double rifles offered in that caliber.
I own quite a few double rifles. Some of them have rimless extraction. I have never had a failure.
Just my $0.02 worth.
