Thanks for the help everyone, I couldn't get it out so I took it to a gunsmith, and he had it out in less the a minute, charged me 2 bucks. I worked on it for 4or 5 days trying the various things you all , and others suggested. My brass drift pins are all mashed on their points, so what was my problem? Well being overly careful. The barrel is off a 72 browning SA-.22 so I didn't want to mare it, so when I mounted in my vice I wrapped cloth around it. My vice jaws are hard plastic that have magnets that hold them in place. after a couple of hits the barrel would rotate a little. I tightened up the jaws as much as I dared, but with the cloth wrapped around the still caused it to turn. I shouldn't have used the cloth. So I guess that's why he gets the big bucks. he knows how far he can go with something before it gets messed up. As a bonus he had so .22 mags in stock, as well as .22lr. So I picked that, and in addition, of course paid him his 2 bucks.
