Hydraulic method using oil and a lead slug with a wood dowel. The slug will seal at the muzzle easily. No different from slugging a bore with soft lead.

Just for clarity... Are you saying somebody on the Fire had a cartridge stuck in the bore, put a rod down the muzzle end of the bore to tap/push the cartridge rearward out of the chamber, tapped the rod against the bullet to jar the round loose and ignited the primer? My friend Johns 300 Salvage. We determined he needs small base dies for this rifle. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/eHaKQNL.jpg) I repaired the stock and got it back to him a a few months ago. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/B5wYQUS.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/RaRbGKo.jpg)

He set it off in his living room and never found most of the brass case.

I had case head separation today and got the case stuck in the chamber. I pushed an ear plug down the case and used plastic epoxy to fill the case. Once it hardened I just used my cleaning rod to tap it out. Easy.
I have a section of fifty cal cleaning rod welded to an ez out for just that eventuality.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

I recall some story (40 years ago now) of a benchrest shooter getting a live round stuck and removing the bolt and tapping the catridge back out using a cleaning rod done the muzzle. The round detonated as it was ejected (how?) and a piece of thr brass hit his nearby wife in the chest causing a fatal injury. I thought this happened over here but don't have any details.
When I was experimenting with cast loads in my 458 I ran into an issue where the powder didn't ignite and the primer blew the projectile into the start if the rifling. It was surprisingly hard to remove and I ended up breaking and wedging a wooden dowel in the barrel. I had a gunsmith remove bullet and dowel for me - he melted out the projectile and then the dowel was knocked out.
I now have a steel rod with a 9mm case jammed on the end as a ramrod but haven't had to use it. Lesson learned was even medium powders are too slow for cast and ignition gets weird - hangfires are a warning sign.
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?

Set the rifle upright and pour some Kroil down the bore. Let it set overnight. THEN, put the rod down the bore and give it a little tap, should come right out.. There it is.

That bench rest story sounds like the one that happened in St. Louis Missouri at the super shoot. The case hit the wife in the heart and she died right there. I wasn’t there so I didn’t witness it but I know 2 guys that did. Wife stayed behind the rifle when the husband removed the bolt. He went to tap it out and it went off and launched the cleaning rod out of his hand. Everyone went to laughing because they thought no one got hurt then his wife discovered she had been hit in the chest. I know it doesn’t sound plausible but it happened some how. It might be why all the bench rest shooters quit neck sizing and started setting their shoulders back .002!!! I asked for more information about this incident on another forum and a guy posted this link. Sound like it has happened more than once. https://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?62124-Stuck-live-cartridge/page2

Mystery solved. I resized all the brass after finding that a few more were very tight in the chamber.
Turns out a few in the mix were once fired, not new...primer pockets dirty, showing use.
Just a case of a rifle with a bigger chamber firing them and they got mixed in with a batch for a rifle with a smaller chamber.
