[QUOTE="wildcat westerner, post: 1599923, member: 21361"] Hello, Recently I was fire forming a large amount of cases for a .257 A.I. and I had a case split in half on firing it. Years ago I had a similar situation occur with a different rifle and it cost quite bit to have the partial case removed from the chamber. Yesterday a solution was suggested to me to solve the problem and I am sharing it with you because it works and is quite simple. Mount the rifle securely in a padded vise horizontally 1. Insert your cleaning rod from the muzzled end of the rifle 2. Attatch a large metal bristle brush on the end of you rod which now sticks out the end of your actio n. 3. Pull this large brush back into the chamber, where it will become stuck in the neck. The tighter the better. 4.Now, give the handle on the rod a sharp smack 5. The case will be removed from your chamber if your brush was fit tight inside it. I am embarrassed that the solution could be so simple, even though the problem was so frustrating. Take care, WW [/QUOTE]
