[QUOTE="bboswell, post: 1220998, member: 67771"] A friend chambered a factory loaded bullet in his 270 Encore, shot one and chambered another, since no shot came so he ejected the round, bullet stuck in rifling, powder dumped out and primed case flew.... He brought it to me to clear the stuck bullet. I figured it would be easy to put a wooden dowel down the barrel and bump the bullet out. Wrong, dowel broke in the barrel, I put anther dowel in to bump it all out and it broke at the muzzle. i have since been able to pull the bullet from the breech end but the dowel is STUCK. I have exhausted everything I can think of to push / drive it out that won't hurt the crown or rifling. Anyone have any ideas?? [/QUOTE]
