Stuck pellets in a barrel

[Yo]

2 questions. If I have to drill out The pellets, drill the front or back of the pellet? It is a Diana 460. So, if i have to drill from the back how do I get the barrel off? Remember the spring and piston are in the way from the back.

Did you buy it new if so I would send it back if those pellets got stuck not by user error. Have them send a shipping label. Don't ruin your gun!

Yo has a good point. If you do not feel confident doing the work your self. I believe the Diana’s have a life time warranty. You could send it in for repair but you would have to pay for shipping and insurance both ways. About $ 80.00 to $100.00 . I would call Umarex and see what they have to say about any charges for repair. Everyone has different abilities and risks that they are willing to accept. MM

Or, If you aren't up to the task (drilling) and don't want to or can't send it to Umarex, its a job that a gunsmith ought to be able to do.

Got them out. I sacrificed a brass cleaning rod. With some Balistol soaking I was able to pound them out. Cleaned the barrel. Now to try it out. Thanks guys for all the help.
