I tried brake line tubing that was 5/16 but it didn't fit all the way down. I used the belt sander to decrease the diameter a bit at a time with no luck, got the side wall paper thin but kept hanging up. Next came a worm patch pull, then a coathanger cork screw. None worked.

At that point I had all I could stand so in went the powder and a couple patches jammed in on top of it but it wouldn't fire. I took the touch hole liner out and saw that no powder had made it to the touch hole. I sprinkled a little in and BAM no more brush!

Thanks for the helpful hints.
 
ALWAYS twist a brush at least 1/2 turn BEFORE you try to pull it back out!!!
