[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1221029, member: 77249"] I would not put any liquid in the barrel. Any liquid poured in the barrel would be absorbed by the wood dowel and make it swell and get tighter. Unless you are using the liquid as a lubricant for instant removal. One of the most powerful forms of putting pressure on a small hole is a Hand levered grease gun. You would need a piston in the barrel to hold the pressure so the grease would not flow around the dowel, but shove the dowel rods out. A lead cast gas check bullet may work well. or a jacketed bullet with the nose cut flat at bore diameter. so as not to act as a wedge to the dowel rod. Remove the barrel from the action and make a cap to fit the barrel, Put a hole in the cap thread 1/4X28 screw a grease Zert fitting in, Attach a grease gun start pumping. This is a system that works to remove unknow loads from muzzleloaders. Seen a gun that was double loaded, 2 bullets and 2 loads of powder squirted out with no problem or damage to gun. Good Luck on this one. [/QUOTE]
