I have a22-250 that was being bore cleaned when I must have used more than one patch. The result is the carbon fiber rod and patch is stuck in the bore. I have applied a couple eye dropper loads of Hoppe's bench rest #9 and let sitting. It still doesn't budge so I'm at a lost for what to do. Help info needed
Don't be afraid of the light it's just me.

Do you have a brass rod available? If so, you could try tapping it out from the muzzle end.
The other thing to do is to take the gun and gently tap the rod on the ground, using the weight of the gun to drive the patch down the bore. Not preferable, but it may get it moving.

Tap it on through with a hammer.

First of all, when you get it wet, it expands. Oil/liquid doesn’t compress so stop putting more liquid in the barrel. Let it dry out some so the patch will compress then try tapping it out gently.
