I'd pull a couple more of your suspect cartridges and weigh the charges. In your first post, you said that you had two rounds that fired normally before you got the stuck bullet, so it may just be that the round you took apart might have been one of the "good" ones.

If you had a full powder charge and it ignited, the bullet wouldn't have gotten stuck in the barrel. If you had a full powder charge and it *didn't* ignite (almost impossible if the primer ignited with enough force to lodge the bullet in the barrel), you would have had a mess of unburnt powder in the chamber.

The only thing that makes sense is that you had no powder, or a drastically-reduced charge.
