Hi everyone, it's been a while since I was in here, but here I am again with a problem on my hand. I went out shooting the other day using my fathers Remington Model 742 in the .30-06 caliber. I wanted to try some ammo I bought from Midway and the first round that I fired seemed to fire fine, but the shell got stuck in the chamber. I thought it was like any other shell jam I have had with other brands of rounds, but this one is stuck really bad, I even broke a rod trying to push it out from the chamber.

I called my local gun-smith and asked them about this and they told me they wouldn't have anyone in until next week and even then they didnt know if they were able to help me. So, I was wondering if anyone has any ideas or tips on what to do?

The ammo I used was the cheap russian Barnaul .30-06 caliber and I recommend everyone with semi-automatics to stay away from it for now.

Any help on this matter would be highly appreciated!

Thanks!
