I was at the range yesterday morning with the flintlock rifle for a few shots.
When I got home and cleaned up the gun, I was just about finished up. Put everything all back together and ran the very last oiled patch down the barrel.
Up the up stroke, the jag snapped off of my range rod and is pleasantly stuck about 4 inches down the barrel.
I couldn't find the jag I normally use so I used that kinda long brass one that comes with the CVA Optima V2 pistol and rifle.
The thing snapped at the threads.
I haven't decided yet on my best approach for removing the stupid thing from the barrel.
I don't know how or why it snapped, guess it don't matter now but I would not recommend that anyone use that jag.
The other one that I have is going in the trash.
