Ball screw

Or pull the nipple and put some FFFFg in there, reassemble and shoot

No ball screw and it's a flintlock, plus there's 100 grains of powder in the barrel already and the ball is stuck to the point I can't get it seated

Cheers but uh how do I legally store this, technically it's a loaded firearm, I removed the flint and drenched the powder with water

Can you gently shake the gun upside down so the powder falls out the primer hole?
