In making 1000 .40 on my Dillon 550 I screwed up with one batch of 100 and may have double charged one. I need to pull those 100 rounds. I have a kinetic bullet puller already. What works faster and better?

An expensive pneumatic machine. You could go buy a collet puller and the appropriate collet but, It won't work that much faster or better than your kinetic puller.NRA Certified Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun and Metallic Cartridge Reloading Instructor

I'd just bang 'em out with the kinetic. Like said above, you'll be done in less than 15 minutes.

well...you could just shoot'em and when you hit the double charge and you blow the barrel...bring yourself a spare and keep plugging away...
not recomended but will get the job done....had to/ and still doing this with 10k of 223 loaded with weak brass.....
for 100rds the hammer type puller will be your best bet.

Why not just weigh each of the rounds in question. Any double charges should be obviously heavier.Comment

Because, it WON'T WORK! Since we are only talking about a few grains of powder, by the time you factor in all the inconsitencies of the weights of primers, projectiles and brass, you're going to have a +/- weight of more than a single powder charge.NRA Certified Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun and Metallic Cartridge Reloading Instructor

This doesn't work on pistol calibers.. The amount being weighed is insignificant to the inconsistencies of bullet, brass, primer..
Just take 10 bullets and weight them.. You'll see that they'll vary by 2, maybe even 3 grains from bullet to bullet.. Combine that with brass, then primer weights, you could easily end up with a plus or minus 5 grains..
Best bet is to pull them and reuse the components..Aloha snackbar!Comment
