To the OP, I hope you have more sense than to fill the area behind the ball with powder and then fire it. I am sure the poster who suggested that meant if the ball were seated properly. Filling the entire void with a ball stuck half way up the barrel sounds like suicide.

I'm thinking he did mean stuck in the cylinder like he said, but I still don't see how that would happen with 15 grains of BP having been fired behind it. Otherwise, he wouldn't be asking about having to remove a nipple since the whole cylinder would have to be removed to do it and it would be obvious to just push the ball back out of the barrel. I'm so confused
Maybe he'll come back and make a post #2 to clarify.
