Bullet puller for Rifle cases?

TVDean · November 6, 2001, 11:24 AM

I can't find a puller for my 300WSM!

The Midway won't work.
The RCBS won't work with the one collet it comes with.

What's a guy to do?

Well, this won't work with a really heavy crimp or tight neck tension, but Charlie Hood has come up with a truly neat gizmo... It works with a Davidson bullet puller... Sinclair's might have some...

My choice is either a KENETIC puller or the FORESTER "easy pull" puller.

The Forester is not available in every caliber. I remember 22; 30 and, 35 calabers. It's price is about $20 from GRAF & Son

It will fit a .30 cal (duh) and uses your shellholder.

I'm looking for a "kinetic" type.
The kind you bang on your wifes favorite antique hutch.

The Midway & RCBS pullers don't provide a fitting home for the fat 300WSM's base.

Try this one maybe- it is a good inertia type one - but expensive.

Generally the trigger on the rifle makes an excellent bullet puller...and it saves wear and tear on your wife's favorite table top...

Steve:
Yes!
The Forester Bullet Puller is a die that threads into your press. It has a series of jaws/leaves, with a hole in it.

Place the bullet, to be pulled into your shell holder and lower the ram until the bullet is in the jaws/leaves. Raising the ram takes a little force because you will find the pulled bullet in the jaws/leaves. It's that simple and no non-sence.

If you have the RCBS, try substituting your shell holder for the collett. Its worked for me in the past...
