That looks handy! To the garage I go. Need me one of those. Got to have some metal here to make one out of .

All I use now is a RCBS "smack puller" and frankly I don't like it.

I always figured Ed would just use his teeth the same way that feller used that new fangled tool.

I have a hammer and hate it.

I also have the turret-mounted, caliber-specific puller, which works OK, but this puller looks great, I need one!

The "firing pin" bullet dislodger works pretty well. Sharp Shooter

This method gets iffy when you are worried that the powder is over charged. Skull Flame
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

That's a neat machine. It'd be better if cast bullets were shown being pulled without deformation.
I've beaten sections of fence post to splinters with my "green" hammer and it still looks new and is necessary for cast bullets.

I use one of those "green" hammers as well. It works pretty good once you find the right technique, I can dislodge a bullet with two or three whacks. Getting the powder out of it is annoying though.
Easy come easy go

Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.

I use the slap hammer and have a puller similar to the one in the picture.

I put a piece of Jeans or Denim in the bottom so the bullet doesn't deform and slap in a well seasoned 4X4 or 6x6 of Red Oak, it works in 1 whack 2 if it is old 8mm or 7.62 that has the crap crimped out of it...  The powder is easy to get out once it once you have a few hundred bullets smooth the edges and make it round...

I use the hornady collet press mounted puller. It works extremely well and is crazy fast. But this one looks to be just as quick. Looks like a neat design.

Prefer my collet puller over the old smacker I have - lot cleaner and can pull without damaging the bullet.
