S&W 625-2 with bullet lodged in barrel from squib load. Bullet is from 1961 military ball match round.
Posted as a reminder to all to stop shooting when you hear a wierd report. My second in last two days of shooting, other was a .22 long rifle which did exit the barrel.
Will try loading pic again.

Yep, sometimes I worry about missing one when firing at a fairly rapid rate.
Was the pic taken after you had already pushed the bullet almost out of the barrel? If not, how did you swing the crane aside?

Mal,
That's the base of the bullet in the forcing cone. It has yet to come out but then I haven't tried to force it as I'm beyond that these days. ;)
Hey how did you fix the link? I was gonna wait till my daughter came home. thanks,
Mc

"... base of the bullet in the forcing cone." Ah! It just looked strange. I didn't realize the FC had so much of it external to the frame. It still looks strange to me; I think it must be the way the shadows fall on it.
On the link, you had added too many "http's". Good thing I got to it first or your daughter wouldn't have let you live it down. ;)
