How to remove stuck ejector plunger? Where parts?

[redie fredie]

I shot some fine quality Winchester ammo (Premium) and had a couple primers back out; this caused my ejector to stick inside the Bolt head (or break off and stick into the bolt head). The bolt is dissasembled, but the plunger parts are still in bore except the retaining pin. Any idea's about getting the rest out?

Use penetrating oil, flush crud out, use more oil, smack it face down onto the bench top

When you get the tip of the ejector protruding from the bolt face, use some of the needle nose visegrips to pull it out. They seem to work better for gripping it than regular pliers. This was recommended to me when I had one stuck a while back and it worked well. Good luck.

Thanks for the info!

Another question; Where do you recomend I get the replacement parts at? (plunger, spring, maybe pin)

If the above doesn't work, stick the point of an electric engraver into the hole and touch the ejector. A few seconds of this and then slowly pull the point out of the hole. Usually the ejector follows it.

Had to drill it out, came out with the drill.
Spring had to be dug out.
Brownells to the rescuefor replacement parts.
