Does anyone know of a way to pull a 50 cal bullet with out marring it?
A friend suggested using a clamp for a flaring tool to grip the bullet and somehow use a rifle press but I have no way to afix the case to the ram for pulling. I do not even think they make a collet puller for 50 but again, I do not want to mar the bullet if I can help it.
I have several spent brass with standard ball bullets pressed in. You know the inert decorative kind. I struck a deal with a fellow gun nut and he gave me 100 in trade. Now I just need to figure out how to get them apart as the brass is LC '04 and WCC '07 and '08. I was thinking I could build a large kinetic hammer using some heavy walled pipe.
Thoughts?
