A friend made the same mistake way back when the compound was gray, not clear. I took it out of his chamber with a bronze bore-brush, spun with a drill motor. Since the silica in the compound only melts under the high heat of by powder gas, the only thing that hardens inside the chamber is the liquid glue carrying the silica. The bore-brush took it right out, as could be clearly seen in my bore-scope.
