The Hornady Cam Lock Bullet Collet #1 (.172") is a precision collet designed for reloaders who pull bullets regularly and demand smooth, reliable operation. This collet works with the Hornady Cam-Lock bullet puller system, gripping bullets securely so you can use your reloading press's mechanical advantage to extract them safely from loaded rounds. Whether you're sorting mismatched ammunition, salvaging components from factory loads, or correcting handloading mistakes, a quality collet that holds bullets true makes the job faster and reduces the risk of damage to your components.
The cam-lock design is the standout feature here. Instead of manual tightening, the collet locks around the bullet through a cam mechanism, which means consistent grip without guesswork and less hand fatigue during repetitive pulling. The .172" size matches common bullet diameters, making this collet suited for a range of rifle and handgun cartridges in that bore range. Once locked in place, you simply use your press's leverage to pull the bullet cleanly from the case.
Hornady built this tool with reloader reliability in mind. A properly functioning collet is essential to the entire bullet-pulling operation—loose or damaged collets waste time and risk crushing or deforming bullets you're trying to save. This collet is engineered to maintain its grip and deliver the smooth operation that separates a good pulling session from a frustrating one.
