Barrel obstruction help

[Butcherbill]

Pour water down the barrel let it soak in then try again

He got it out already.

How large is the rag in question? If I was in that situation, I would remove it little by little using a long installer's drill bit like the one at the link. You'd obviously have to be really slow and careful. But a gunsmith would do it entirely safely.

this is the way I would go.

this is the way I would go.

So you would put the rag back in and do it again?

Well , not a lot to do, the ranges are closed here, I may even have to clean the guns again.
Thinking of putting a scope on one of my snub nose pistols, had one ,sold it miss it. Damn .Help.
Could be the MRI I had today, those are fun.

Lets see. First you need a 90 ton press with a very long throw. Then look in the back and get a titanium rod exactly .668 in diameter. No wider and certainly no thinner. Then we need to build the jig........

Don't forget the wooden dowel and a big hammer, pound from either end then get a bigger hammer if that doesn't work.....

How’s it coming along? Did he get it out? I have nothing else to do other than worry about this thread...

5/8" dowel, clip the head off a epoxy coat deck screw, pilot hole the dowel, thread it in, picked it out gently. Thank you all, especially tent pole guy who included the helpful picture.

The shotgun is an ancient Agnew & Sons 12ga SxS I inherited a few years ago. Not my bag, but the best clay buster I've got in my arsenal much to my chagrin.

Hell yeah, glad it helped and worked for you!
