Take it to the gun smith. That is the best way.

| Try a .35 caliber bronze brush and run it into the chamber. It should snag the case and pull it out. You might want to try shooting a bit of penetration oil in first, but dry should work. Then, set your dies up to headspace on the shoulder rather than the belt. Paul B. |

| i use the brush most of the time. if that doesnt work I shake up a can of compressed air turn it up side down and spray the cold liquid onto the brass, works almost every time. |

Thanks for the brush tip, it worked on my 2nd try. The first try I forgot about the loaded cartridge indicator sticking into the chamber. After I held the indicator it was grabbed by the brush and popped right out--THANKS |
