Was that written in English? I honestly can't tell.
Was there something in particular you didn't understand? Which part was unclear? I wasn't deliberately trying to be obtuse.
Had the same problem using early laquer coated russian fodder. A simple tap with a cleaning rod popped the round free. No big deal really.
The earlier question about deactivating the primer. Stand the bbl on the muzzle end and put some Kroll down the bbl and let it sit. For how long- till you cant' stand it anymore. Is it guanteed? No but it's better than nothing IMO. And for heavens sake if you do tap it out clamp the bbl in something pointed away from anything fragile and use a driver that keeps you away from the business end :bad:
Not English, Southern I think. "Bloom, bloom" is Southern for 'bang, bang".
I think you have two problems going here Ray. One, your rifle is doubling and the other, your reloaded ammo is incorrect. I will leave it to others with more experience with ARs to offer solutions but from my meager experience I will offer that doubling can be caused by holding the pistol grip too lightly.
One thing: though it is rare for a cartridge to fire when you are pounding it out from the muzzle, it is possible. In this case the upper or rifle as the case may be can be as dangerous from the breech end as from the muzzle. I have heard of a person being killed when the case was discharged out the rear of the action at high velocity.
I disagree with the soft hammer and brass rod advice. Your rod is going to be in contact with the bullet, not the primer and your hammer is going to be banging on the rod, not the primer. Regular old cleaning rod, with a push tip if you have it, regular old hammer, stand it vertical on a table, using eye protection and reaching out at arms length, give the rod a good rap. You should orient everything as though something is coming out the front then and the back at 2,000 feet per second. There is a real good chance the primer will not be deactivated and you can't tell either way. Beating it out with a hammer and a rod is SOP. Just make sure you and any helpers are in the clear, that is, out of the line of fire, both ends, if it does go bang. Really, due to the much greater weight of the rod than the cartridge case, it is the case likely to be the greatest danger.
and please do not use a tip like this

they easily wedge between the projo and the barrel and are hell to get loose.
This is huge right here. I made the mistake of not knowing 100% how the gauge worked this past summer and got a few stuck cases during rapid fire strings at a service rifle match. Rounds worked fine during slow fire but not rapid. Come to find out a CH of the rim was above the lower lip and caused the rounds to jam in the chamber. I got a cleaning rod, banged out the live round from the bore and continued to shoot that day. Quick adjustment to my dies fixed the problem.
