I can't believe this: bullet stuck in barrel

Somehow no powder was dropped into a case. I know that ultimately it is my fault for expecting rather than inspecting, but I either missed the powder dropping step, or the Lee auto disk missed a charge.
Anyway, what is the best way to remove the bullet? I thought about getting a dowel rod and pushing it in the direction of travel as not to reverse the bullet against the rifling. This sound good?

I've never had a squib happen to me *yet*. I'm glad you guys are alright. What do you look for when this happens?? How do you know to stop shooting? I'm very nervous about this after reading these posts.
