Getting something out of musket barrel.

Thanks Ricky for your very informative reply.
I tried to push a very small drill into the went hole but its totaly jamed, it would not go in even the smallest bit. I pushed arod down into the barrel, when its 10cm left until the end it stops. I does feel like it gives a little. Tomorrow i will fit a small drill to the rod and try to drill it out.
Would pouring some hot water in the barrel before help at all, or does it make it worse?
