She is at the gun smith. Tried the hydro method, didn’t budge. Was going to put it in the oven over night, but the darn thing is about 5 inches to long.
Thanks for all your help, I’ll let you know how much it'll run me and what all he had to do.

I had a problem with some squid loads once in a Mosin Nagant and got several in a row stuck. My solution was to just take a steel rod and lower it in until it touched the bullet, then back it out just a few inches and let it fall. Just that little bit of momentum was enough to knock the bullet loose without risking damage to the gun.
And how far in is the dowel broken off? Can you run a wood screw into the dowel, then latch on with a pair of vise-grips to pull it out?
Well the gunsmith got this mess sorted out for 130 bucks. He said it was the biggest pain in the ass and that if it was someone ales, he would have charged double. Like Jungle George said before, he took a 223 case filled it with lead. Then drilled a hole in it, drilled inside of the bullet. Drove a steel rod to get the wooden dowel out. Then to get the copper jacket, he had to make a special brass cylinder about two inches long and .223 in diameter to drive the jacket out.
Turned out to be a very expansive lesson for me here. Hopefully someone reads this and won’t do what I did.
You forgot to put the powder in the case, right? Then you tried to get the bullet out with a wooden dowel rod.
That's happened to me, only it was in a revolver. I shredded the dowel rod but was able to get it out. I sacrificed an aluminum cleaning rod and got it out just fine.
just WD40 everything from both ends... and get a .30 brass rod, the once that have sections... the start hammering down the bullet from the chamber to the muzzle and add sections of the rod as you go...
