Having to take about 800 .357 Magunums apart due to a reloading data error (the 48th edition, anything Bluedot is wrong in .357). and have broken two kinetic hammers so far. Using them on wooden blocks in the shop. Does Dillon make a better tool for this? They were loaded on my XL650 and well the crimps are good :). Takes three to four hammer hits to shake the projectile free. I don't care if the hammer is blue, green or red this kills them when you have that many to take down..

You are correct, the hammers are intended for disassembling very small quantities of a wide variety of ammunition. If you have jacketed bullets, a Hornady collet puller is more reliable- in our experience the collet wears out in about 700-800 rounds, but is less effort than a kinetic puller.

I disagree. I have a Forrester Collet puller. I just finished de-milling just under 2k of .223 rounds (Due to my error). There is less chance of one of these wearing out vs. a impact puller.
