[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1909546, member: 96226"] it's basically a way to find cracks in iron and steel. You reallly want to do it. The pressure it takes to wedge a case head in a bolt head like that where you're asking how to get it out means the rifle was subjected to a massive overpressure. I'd be having MPI (magnaflux) inspections on the lugs, lug engagement surfaces and bolt face and probably replacing the barrel because either a fool or a child (or both) owned it previously. For how to get it out, that's going to be a challenge. I'd start by drilling it out and see if I could get the metal thin enough to be able to stick use a spanner tool and a couple carefully drilled holes to spin it or cause the brass to bend until I could get it to pop out. Once you can get it to spin, it should pop out under ejector pressure. I bet the ejector is fugged up too though so you'll probably end up at a gunsmith anyway if you don't want to break anything else. [/QUOTE]
