Well 82abn, congratulations. I am sad that this sorta puts the cork in the bottle but glad you got your gun back hopefully little worse for the experience. Now it's time to get right back up on that horse and keep riding.

OK, there was no good blackpowder analogy but you know what I mean.

Shoot stuff, have fun, be safe!

You more than likely did drill a hole through your ball with the bullet puller. So get yourself a 50 Cal Bullet Scraper, your range rod, and some elbow grease, and spend some quality time with your rifle scraping that ball out... Have fun! The next time you might want to add some powder before you ram the patch and ball home. Ooops!

First of all necchi did not have the stuck ball. Try to keep up, the OP started a new thread and did get the ball out. http://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/286788/
