techj Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 You are using a bullet puller - either kinetic or collet type -- aren't you? It shouldn't be very difficult with the correct tool. No offense but it sounds like you don't have much experience in reloading. I would strongly suggest finding someone in your area with some experience and working with them. While not impossible, it is harder and potentially very dangerous to rely on forums, youtubes, etc. when first starting out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlvrDragon50 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 Yes. I am using the Frankford Arsenal bullet puller. Not budging at all. I'm not going to be actually reloading for at least a month, I just wanted to set up my dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techj Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 That's a hammer style I believe. After each rap of the hammer on a hard surface make sure that you check that case hasn't loosened. It should have come with instructions. You may need several really good raps with a loose grip on the hammer to work a bullet loose. Hard to describe in words. but it's more important to have the hammer move than how much force you use. Even a way over crimped bullet will eventually come loose - I know this from personal experience . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlvrDragon50 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 Yea I dunno. I've been hammering away, and the cap just keeps coming loose after like 5 blows. I'll likely just chuck these out and try again with new cases :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingnut Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 In 5 blows with the hammer, In my opinion that I believe that's to much crimp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
