It's almost bed time and the end of one of those days.  Saw two as is Gahnedra's (hope mine is as good), one MK II MH and got a slug stick in my cannon and have spent most the afternoon and part of the evening try to extract it.  Finished the day off with dinner with  good friends so thing weren't all the bad today...

How do you extract the slug from a cannon? Is it similar to pulling a ball/connical from a muzzleloader on a much larger scale?

Yes it's the same, but no tools exist, you need bigger  and  you have to make them as you go. And when they break you have think up a different way...do you know how hard it is to drill into a tinfoil cartridge you se can't 24 incn down inside a barrel?

Slugs out, is a hunting in Montana topic.  What an idiot I am for sticking slug is out of topic here.  ;D

How to remove a stuck slug from a cannon barrel is a discussion topic for the cannon forum.  Of course those guys over there saw right through it and figured what I did.  They are all over the laughing at me, no not with me, at me.  You just wait, one of them will do something stupid. I'll get them
