Is there anything I can do to my extractor or a upgrade I can get for it so it wont eject the spent casings into my rifle????

Wolff extra power spring would do everything you could need to do to improve extraction. However, if casings are ending up inside your gun, i'd be more inclined to check the ejector.

theyre ejecting fine, they are just hitting the deflector and taking off the finish.

That's what the deflector's there for.

Buy some flitz or similar and use a q tip to "lightly" buff the brass marks out. You'll never even know they were there.

That is what it is supposed to do. If it really bothers you, put a pice of electrical tape on it before you go shoot. If you are lucky, no one will notice...

He probably means that the brass is actually breaking off the black finish on the deflector. My Bushy does this and I can see the aluminum underneith, deffinately not the usual brass markings. I'm not so worried because it is aluminum underneath, and besides, it's a rifle anyways.

Does it look like this?
