srvet Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 I have a good number of reloaded rounds that came with a secondhand rifle. I want to salvage the cases but do not want to shoot them. Can anyone recommend a press mounted bullet puller that is suitable for high volume use. I have a kinetic hammer already but will end up with forearms like Popeye if I pull all these with the hammer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzarM1 Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 If you are not fussed about saving the bullets just put them in the shell holder and with no die in your single stage press....send the round up through the press just enough to get a pair of pliers grip the bullet....lower the round and grip the pliers firmly hard against the top of your press...it will come out and a lot easier than the kinetic route....certain bullets you can get away with using the wire cutters on your pliers. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcampbellsmith Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 Hornady. I haven't used mine in a while, but it works well when required. Regards JCS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srvet Posted February 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 Ahh I see what you mean, mole grips would work but would muller the life out of the bullets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzarM1 Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 TBH....I have had occasions when I was left with only a minor indentation on the bullet and re-used them for plinking/plates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richiew Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 Rcbs or Forster pullers work well and can use the bullet again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobbit Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 I use the Forster and it works very - salvages the bullets with little or no marks Does take a knack when opening the collet inserts to make sure you end up pulling on the bullet not the case head but that is achieved by reading the instructions and take it slowly not wading in like I did first time!
