Got nothing done today

A couple of months back I loaned my RCBS hammer bullet puller to a guy in my club that just started reloading. He said he had about 20 rounds to break down. I forgot all about it until I needed it today.....
  

If your rifle is not in 7.62 and you can't hit what you are aiming at with de-linked machinegun ammo you are a pretender.

SS, were you planning to pull lead bullets or jacketed? I gave up on the hammer device as it gets messy with the powder managing to get all over the place. For lead, I put the loaded round in the shellholder and run it up in the press with no dies until the bullet shows over the top and then take a pair of wire cutters/strippers and with the strippers laying flat on the top of the press grab the bullet securely and lower the ram pulling the bullet loose.

SBoomer I notice it is only 50 in the house. Did your wife forget where the wood pile is?

Wife?….I dont own one, she fired me 10yrs ago! I get up 2-3 times a nite to put wood in the stove. Delaying that a couple hours at -30 is the result you see. This is the only time of year I can have my Butter Pecan ice cream last more than 1/2hr.
