Anyone used pulled bullets for .223? Any problems? Found a good deal and want to know if it's worth it or not to bother. The bullets look good with no collet marks (or minimal).

Go for it. If they are cheap just use it for plinking loads. I do it all the time. Even if there is a good mark on the bullet. Cheap is cheap and for plinking ammo who cares. Now if your plinking is 400yd dog shots then I would be a little more picking.
i have had ok experiences and a couple bad experiences with pulled bullets.
one ad, said "pulled .223 bullets, no pull marks, great shape" I still have most of the 1000 left. all look like he used pliers with new teeth, and most are deformed and flattened.
buy from someone reputable with a return policy and it probably will go right. I bought mine from a forum member.(differnt site)
All the pulls I have bought were great except for one batch of .308 bullets. There were 4 different ones in the mix. [Rant2]Quote:

22 caliber bullets are so cheap I dont even look at pulled bullets.
