Use a .30 or .45 cal bore brush pulled backwards.

I want to say I saw an article where Kyle Lamb shows you can get it out with a standard chamber brush.

Did you insert the (bronze or SS) brush into the remaining section of the separated case then try to pull it out the opposite direction?  If you do this correctly the bristles of the brush REALLY bite into the case usually extracting it when pulled in the opposite direction.
