.17 hmr

:shock: :shock: I just ran into something I've never seen before in 60+ years of shooting stuff. I had a shell fire?? (rim was struck), ejected the shell and no bullet but still full of power. The bullet stopped about 2" down the barrel. Haven't been able to get the bullet out yet.

It is a Marlin Model XT-17. I don't have anything strong or small enough to go down the barrel. I'll have to get a .17 cleaning kit. :problem:
