I used a wire coat hanger as a kid but theres a possibility of damaging the rifling, maybe use a bit of wood dowl?

What gun is it?

hi buddy

there is a rod you can buy from your local gun shop,and just gently tap them out

tap either back to the breach or take the barrel of and do it that way!

I wouldnt bother mate, just push the rod in the muzzle end and knock the pellets out the breach.

Had the same problem with the same gun S200 which belonged to the farmer whos land I shoot on.

His jams were due to him loading pellets in the magazine the wrong way round!

It also wasnt indexing correctly!

I carefull removed the magazine assembly and pushed the pellets back to the breech.

Gun was then reassembled and the magazine sorted for indexing.

Its ok now and shoots well!

Great little gun and the power is easy to adjust!

how do u do that then masmiffy?

Not so easy to do now on the MKIII's Anti-tamper and all that!

 

Unless you have a chronograph, I wouldn't bother trying to adjust the power Fox Hunter

Its way to easy to do and just the slightest slip and your gun becomes an FAC job

 

Regarding the jammed pellets, a wooden dowl from the muzzle to either push or tap the pellets back to the breech or if you want to go down the route of removing the barrel, its not hard to do, but easier to push them back as you will have to remove your scope before taking the barrel out.

Ive used a wire coat hanger before, although very very carefully!
