Bullet jammed in barrel after primer pop, input?

[JPainter]

Good Afternoon Fellows,

During a session at the range today I fired a round with no powder in it, my mistake reloading lastnight it would seem. Now I have a bullet lodged in the barrel, it is just beyond the chamber, fully enguaged on the rifling.

This is in a Para P16-40 Limited
It is a 175 gr Lead SWC bullet

What is the proceedure for fixing this? Or is it a trip to the gun smithy?

Thanks!
Jeff

1.Get a wooden dowel of approximately the same diameter of the barrel.
2.Put dowel down muzzle-end.
3.Remove shoe from foot.
4.Whack dowel with shoe.
5.Put shoe back on foot.

At least that's how I did it the last time.

Thanks.

Right on the money agilent_one.

A rubber mallet would work also. I'd lubricate the inside of the barrel too.

That is one of the funniest post's I've seen on this board. And it's all true.
