Basically, if you take it into a Gunsmith, they are just going to do the same thing.

What type of Ammo was it? When my pre-ban rifle failed, I was using Wolf Ammo. It was the first shot, and last shot for the day. My brother and I happened to be out in the middle of nowhere. We packed up and had to drive some 60 miles back to his house to get my cleaning rod. Lesson learned right there, take your cleaning rod with you when you go shooting in the middle of the desert.
I got it out last night, just put a little oil in there and gave it a few stronger taps and it finally popped out.

I was using Wolf ammo also. It was about midway through the 2nd 30 round clip when mine failed.
