    Kroil, a hardwood dowel, and a nylon mallet have always worked for me. A brass drift is a better choice, but I've always gotten by with an oak dowel.

    You are welcome to drop by the workshop at Palais du RifleGuy tomorrow, or any day really, and I can give you a hand knocking it out. I got a lot of practice in the early days of learning to reload.

    Yeah. RifleGuy right. I learned to carry a squib rod in my range bag. It kept me at the range more than once. The most important part is realizing that a squib load happened.

    Let the Kroil soak for a couple hours. Heat the barrel with a blow dryer. Then apply the nylon mallet to the brass or wood dowel.

    And the offer of assistance at the Palais du RifleGuy Garage and Memorial Brothel is still available. Cost you a handshake.

    Absolute worst case we can set you up with an improvised reverse electrolysis tank and eat the slug out one molecule at a time. It might take 24-48 hours, but it will remove the slug, and any fouling in the barrel, but not harm the base metal.

    Being a nerd has it's advantages.
