Hornady Lock-N-Load Impact Bullet Puller
Product Description
The Hornady Lock-N-Load Impact Bullet Puller is a premium, kinetic-style reloading tool engineered to safely extract bullets from loaded cartridges without damaging the projectile or the brass casing. This robust bullet puller is an essential tool for any reloader, allowing for the salvage of components when a cartridge needs to be disassembled.
Unlike basic kinetic bullet pullers that often feature simple plastic handles, Hornady has designed this model with a heavy-duty, ergonomically shaped handle. It incorporates a soft rubber grip to effectively absorb the shock of each strike, significantly enhancing user comfort during extended reloading sessions. The hollow head of the bullet puller efficiently captures both the bullet and powder for immediate reuse.
| Feature | Specification |

Kinetic Mechanics: This bullet puller operates by securely trapping the cartridge case within a specialised, spring-retained aluminium collet inside the hammer head. When the hammer is struck against a hard surface, the sudden deceleration instantly stops the brass case, while inertia forces the bullet to slip freely from the neck. This ingenious design safely catches both the powder and projectile inside the hollow head, ready for reuse.
-
Three-Collet System: The Hornady Lock-N-Load Impact Bullet Puller comes standard with three multi-calibre collets. These collets are designed to cover nearly all common rimmed or rimless centre-fire rifle and pistol cartridges, offering broad compatibility for reloaders.
-
Integrated Storage: To prevent the loss of collets not currently in use, the base of the rubberised handle conveniently unscrews. This reveals a hollow storage cavity where the spare collets can be securely stored, ensuring they are always at hand when needed.
-
Component Preservation: Utilising inertia rather than mechanical teeth for bullet extraction, this tool ensures zero jaw marks or scoring on the copper jacket of the bullet. Consequently, both the bullet and the powder remain undamaged and can be immediately re-used for future reloading projects, saving valuable resources.
