We study the nonlinear evolution of optical pulses reflected from a chirped fiber grating experimentally and with numerical simulations. Over a broad range of grating parameters the nonlinearly reflected pulse splits into a pair of pulses in the range of incident pulse intensities where the transmitted pulse is a single narrowed pulse evolving into a fundamental soliton.
