I have a piece of an old solid fiberglass fishing rod, just fits down the barrel, place it against the bullet and jam it into the bench - has worked well over the years.


Wouldn't this jam the bullet into the firing pin (if the firing pin was protruding out a little bit)?

Has not happened yet, none of my pistols have firing pins that stick out. Learned this trick shooting a Sig P 210 that taught me how to reload 9mm for a quality pistol.

I've been accused of having a dry sense of humor, I see you suffer from the same affliction. Wink

He may have just done the old slam hand.


Hold the slide tight with one hand, whack the grip with the with web of your other hand real hard.



Oh and this... is too big.
