    Yeah... in addition... I've seen a guy use these silly things... and they just don't have that much tension where you'd break one off in the barrel.

    Might be time to take it to a professional gunsmith, before you injure yourself.
    That's what I was thinking so I tried it, and I have excess on both ends too?

    I can't believe the modified hook didn't work?

    Same here, which is why I was thinking the OP might have been using a pistol Boresnake instead of a rifle one.

    I have been wondering the same thing. Minus the nylon pull cord, its still a good 6 inches on both sides.

    I hope you get it resolved soon buddy.

    I would be pretty bummed if that happened to mine

    That's what I was thinking. I'll bid $60.

    Not yet. I haven't tried much in the past few days as it's been a very busy week.

    I did remove the flash hider and was able to grab the very small piece of the end with vice grips. I pulled a lot but only ended up shredding the little bit that was left sticking out.

    Hopefully tomorrow I will get to try a few more things before lugging it off to a gunsmith on Saturday. If I remember, before I start I'll take a few pictures.

    I'll take your $60. I have the broken piece with 22 stamped on the end.

    I really don't know what happened. My only guess is that the end somehow went in slightly folded and got stuck. I'm not sure I could replicated it if I tried.

    Here are some pictures:
