What pray tell is a live bullet? If the cartridge is still in the gun or if the bullet is still in the chamber, open the action and use a cleaning rod or a dowel and put it in the muzzle and push out the round.

if your not comfortable doing this, take gun to a gun smith, and again remove BOLT out of gun before moving gun at all
if willing, remove the bolt, and then use a wooden dowel or cleaning rod with a blunt tip and gently tap rod to push the live round out
I am guessing some did size cases correctly reloading, or like issue
have seen many over the yrs that had this happen using reloaded ammo!
all the more so when someone doesn't fully resize a case and just neck size them, as not all chambers are the same and it happens!
