Default New reloading tool

Well This weekend I made several stupid mistakes reloading with resulted in needing to remove the bullet from loaded rounds. In the past I used kinetic bullet pullers and always hated them. I needed to pull 20 bullets and I decided to try the RCBS bullet puller with caliber specific collet. Wow! what a dream to use.
Easy to use and no damage to the tip of the bullet.
Should have bought this a long time ago.

Yup I love mine.

When doing load development, I often load past book values so I can see when I hit pressure signs in my rifle. Chronograph as well.

I don’t have to worry about not making it to the top, I just simply pull the bullets with the collet, pour the powder out, neck size and reload again.

Indeed. Great tool. No dammage to bullet. Can salvage or reuse everything. Can pull 20 rounds in a few minutes.

I'm going to add a cheap press to my bench, maybe a Lee classic, just for a bullet puller.

The RCBS collet puller has been my goto for over 40 years

I used the RCBS for a long time but have now switched to the Hornady collet puller. Far slicker to use, no damage to bullets and works on turret presses a lot better becasue you don't need to be able to twist the T handle tight.

I've used both the RCBS and Hornady collet pullers. The Hornady is the better tool by far.

I have been using one for a few years ( not as old, I mean experienced as Cat ) and they do work great. Using a Kinetic puller never made sense to me...
