Default things being what they are

The cleaning jag may be partway down the barrel.So if you can remove the nipple and poke 10-20gr of BP into the breech hole.Reinstall the nipple then with another loading rod shove the obstruction down to sit on the small powder charge go somewhere safe and fire it into a box of old clothes /sand so you can see what came out.Won't hurt the gun.When I 1st tried 777 I had a lot of failures to fire and ended up adding real BP down the nipple hole to clear the pipe........Harold.....if you already kroled/oiled the hell out of it you just made it harder to remove as the powder wont be helping.
