Try a chamber brush, push it in and twist it in, then pull it out. Case should come with it.

2 things that I know of, 1-a well used case, # 2-excessive headspace which has happened to me. Try the above 2 suggestions above and we will go from there.

If you can get a stuck case remover for 8mm, I bet there is enough spread to grip the inside of a 338 case. The trick is to use a cleaning rod to drive it out from the muzzle, instead of trying to use the bolt/extractor like it says in the instructions.

I just had a badly stuck surplus case in my SVT 40 and got it out this way, after everything else failed.

Good luck!

A bronze brush pushed thru then retreived usually works. Next size larger might be necessary, go clear thru the barrel before pulling it back.

thanks for the help I took it to a gunsmith to remove and polish the chamber I read somewhere that it helps with stuck hornady cases
