    If it was me, I'd have put the exact dia rod in the bore, plenty of grease and oil in both ends and slowly pushed the slug out using a hydraulic ram. It wouldn't take a lot of pressure, certainly not in hydraulic pressure terms. Once it started it would follow its pre-determined rifled course. But that's just me thinking on my feet

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    And then never allowed a ball bullet with a clipped point to be fired from it again.
