      Harbor Freight rock Tumbler vs Frankford Arsenal Lite

      Looking for a Forester bullet puller or RCBS 40 cal collet

      Title says it all. I can’t seem to find any of them online. I can find the RCBS bullet puller but no collets, or the Forester collets but no puller. Hornady doesn’t make a 40, they make a 41 and those are hard to find too. Thanks
