RCBS Inertia Bullet Puller + WSMs

[BBB]

So my reloading stuff showed up in the mail, and after a trip to WS, I'm now in business. Already got a problem though - I deprimed a bunch of brass, then went to pull a factory load for fun - but the WSM case expands the bullet holder in the RCBS hammer type puller too much to thread the cap back on. I could probably sand down the metal enough to make it fit, but its probably not worth it.

Is there another hammer type puller that will work with the WSMs, or will I have to get the press mounted puller?

Replace the collet with the shellholder for the WSM (RCBS #43) - works like a charm and is all I use with my inertia hammer.

Thanks dude. Didn't think of that.

Take care with a shell holder. There was a long post on another forum about an AD while using one.

Here's the site:

If that doesn't work, go here and read about it:

I've used a shell holder because it was easier/faster but after reading the post, I've decided to stick to the original equipment.

Thanks for the link - I'll just use the auto-prime shellholders in the hammer - the hole looks big enough to avoid the holder contacting the primer.
