RCBS Collet-style Bullet Puller
This is an easy tool to setup and use. It pulls bullets easily, as long as it can get a grip on them. Unfortunately, there are bullet designs that this won't pull, as I quickly discovered. The bullets you intend to pull MUST have some of the exposed projectile to have the caliber diameter. I ran across some .40 S&W semi-wad cutters that have a reduced diameter truncated cone design that was too small for the collet to grip and the bullet shoulder was seated flush with the case mouth. As is it, I'll have to use an inertia puller, as tedious at that is. On bullets that can be gripped by the collets, the bullet pulling task is fast and easy. Instructions were clear and precise enough that even a politician could use it. As it came out of the box, and for the bullets I have tried it on so far, I can only give it 4 stars. Still, it's a puller you should have on your bench.
