pintail_drake2004:
I went shooting today, and the ramrod tip came off at the bottom of my barrel...how do i get it out???

Please help
Pintail

SCLoyalist:
How about a CO2 discharger?  It should expel the tip at a fairly low velocity, and if the tip is brass there shouldn't be any danger of damaging the bore.
   

pintail_drake2004:
Would that work for a flintlock?

SCLoyalist:
It should, although you'd need a flint adapter for your discharger.   I improvised one once using the inflation needle like you'd use to blow up a volleyball or basketball.

Is it just a ramrod tip, or is it a tip and jag and patch?  How tight is the tip stuck?  And is there powder and ball under the ramrod tip?

roundball:
Do keep the muzzle in a safe direction for sure
