Ok heres the situation, my savage 30-06 has a live round stuck in it and it wont eject because the action is stuck. While at the range i fed the round in then the bolt would not lock down. So i tried pulling it back andthen i came to the conclusion that it was stuck.Then I tried hitting it w/a mallet and it wouldnt budge.
Plz Help

I believe the bolt might close on it if you remove the extractor from the bolt. Then you can safely fire it at the range or into a soft piece of earth. Then the fired case can be knocked out with a cleaning rod. IF the round is stuck partially out of fully being chambered so the bolt cannot be closed even w/o the extractor in place, TAKE IT TO A GUNSMITH for removal-DO NOT TRY TO HAMMER IT OUT! There have been cases in which such treatment caused the round to fire with the bolt open, and the BRASS CASE became a dangerous projectile!
