Soak overnite in gun solvent...like shooters choice. You should be able to clear fire channel then. I normally snap a couple 209's(gun empty) to clear breech plug of oil etc) before loading charge. Has always worked.

I always run a super thin needle or wire in from the back of the breech,....especially when I let it sit from season to season with oil in the barrel...never had any problem.. then fire a few caps to make sure it's open....
