Default RE: Help -patch stuck

ORIGINAL: 270sniper

Today, I was cleaning my T/C Flintlock and lost a patch down the barrel. I tried for over 1/2 hour to pull the patch out with a patch puller with no luck.I also poured water down the barrel to see if I thought I lost the patch. When the water didn't flow out of the touch hole, I knew the patch was still there & I wasn't losing my mind. How can I get the patch out? Thanks Joe
I've pulled patches out with small wire bore brush before (like .22 cal. bore brush). The brush is like the stiffvelcro, the patch like the soft velcro. Maybe that'll help.

Happy Hunting, Phil
