Pulling bullets

[Bfh_auto]

Don't mess with the kinetic hammer type. Get the collet versions that go in your press to do it right.

For me it's always "Hammer Time" Que music in your head...
Kinetic pullers don't deform the bullets. But they are a lot of work comparatively.

Ah man, now I can't get Hammer Time out of my head! Some bullets pull pretty easy with collet-type pullers and others not worth a hoot. That's when you go Hammer Time. I use the anvil on my big shop vise which cuts the blows about in half. So far, I've not broken a kinetic puller. Ear pro a definite plus.

It’s federal non typical ammo 140 grain in 6.5 Creedmoor. I picked up a box on sale for 17 bucks and tried them. These rounds shot great! I shot them out to 600 yds with great results. I measured and studied them and bought 2 more boxes. These had .040” more jump on the bullet and accuracy wasn’t as good. So I’m looking for a way to pull bullet and set them to what my rifle shoots better. I usually hand load everything but components are scares right now and I can get plenty factory rounds.

Just throw them in your seating die and seat it a bit deeper, try 5, shoot em, if the crimp doesn't mess em up, skip the pulling.eta I mis read that, use the collet puller to get to proper length, i.e. don't pull all the way out.
