Round Ball Stuck in Barrel

Re: Round Ball Stuck in Barrel

Did you use a bullet puller or a patch puller? A bullet puller uses a screw like this one:

It will screw into the ball and then it can be pulled out. You must screw it in as far as possible to get a good bite on the lead, not just a little way.

Cabela's has a CO2 Load Discharger.

If neither of these work for you take it to a gunsmith.

You can use a CO2 discharger, they run about $30.00. You can also use yor ramrod and push the ball ALL THE WAY DOWN IN THE BREECH, pull the nipple and pour a small amount of powder in the nipple hole, put the nipple back on and fire the ball out. Make sure the ball is seated all the way down the barrel if you try this!
