internetguy Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 (edited) Reloading newbie here, new Dillon 550. Been shooting for a zillion years, etc, etc. Question: can I reuse the components after pulling the round apart with a bullet puller? All the pieces check out to the eye. Thoughts from you gurus? Many thanks for the expertise and your patience with a newb. Best- Neil. Edited April 24, 2009 by internetguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevoro Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Depending on your crimp, lead bullets will be undersized the next time around. If you are running light crimp, you should be ok. I reuse what I pull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boz1911 Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I reuse but only as practice ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UW Mitch Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I reuse but only as practice ammo. Ditto. Screwed up rounds go in a a big yogurt container. When I'm desperate I take apart the rounds to salvage and make practice ammo. ~Mitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajarrel Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Everything but the powder. I have a large coffee can I keep rejects in. On cold wet days, I'll sit down and disassemble bullets and sort components. dj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
