| So i tried shooting some steel cased "tul ammo" i got a walmart. Shot fine till about the 90th round, which stuck in the chamber, and the extractor broke off the back rim of the casing. Extractor is fine, but i cant get the casing out. I had a wooden dowel with me at the time so i tried to pop it out with that, ended up breaking halfway down the barrel so now i have that portion stuck in there. I drilled out the primer from the other side, hoping i could push the dowel out but the piece of metal i was using to push through the primer hole broke off in there too. I soaked it in carb cleaner hoping it would eat up some of the gum holding it in, but it didnt do anything. I got a brass rod to push the wooden one which i was hoping would push the casing, but the brass gets stuck in the wood and makes it expand in the barrel. Anyways its a big mess now and i need more suggestions. I would prefer to conquer this myself rather than taking it to a gunsmith, but i suppose at this point it might be the best option. |
