ok..heres some observations...i see a broken case in the chamber...
put the barreled action in a freezer over night. and then the case will be easier to get out..
second.
barrel has been changed by someone with less then correct tools...notice the pipe wrench marks on the barrel at the chamber area...i would also check for a cracked receiver while your playing with the rifle BEFORE YOU FIRE IT..

other observation...the 7-18 date, doesnt match the serial, however, i cant make out whats above the bomb marking on the barrel, id bet its a W {Winchester} is the a VP in a circle on the barrel? if so, that would tell me for sure...
Winchester barrels, are known for over and undersized chambers...

originally that was put in dry ice...since i dont like paying high dollars for that, in the chest freezer has worked well, the brass shrinks down more then the steel, and it usually falls out..works well for case stuck in a die as well.

I have that tool also, but that would have been priceless during the early '80s when I didn't...

I took a picture while looking down the barrel, if this helps in any way.

Looks to me like there is a case head in there.

If you can borrow a broken shell extractor try putting it in the chamber and see what happens. if there's a case neck in there you'll be able to pull itout.

A Cerrosafe chamber casting that extends into the throat slightly beyond the end of the chamber will easily remove any stuck case without risking damage to the chamber walls.
