All of these were very recently loaded, so I doubt that they had developed much of a 'seal' yet. But, thanks for the reminder. That never hurts. At any rate, with the ear plug in there for a cushion, and using a metal anvil instead of wood, I pulled all the rest of the .270 bullets ... roughly thirty-five more of them. They came apart with three of four smacks for most all of them this time. Now, for the .264 WinMag loads! And, this time, I will re-seat them a little prior to pulling, because these HAVE BEEN loaded for quite a while! Thanks again to everyone.
