Anyone have experience with the Hornady Cam-Lock Bullet Puller on pistol ammo? I heard the it doesn't work well with pistol ammo because there's too little of the bullet to grab.

Nope, If I need one I use a old wack a wacka hammer style RCBS
I use it and I have the bullet whacker thingy (kinetic) and I much prefer the cam lock puller. I've not had issue with not getting a good grip, but the unit takes a bit of practice. It's not like a die where you run it full up into the puller. Rather the bullet engages the opening, lever down activating the tightening cam, and drop your case.
It took me a bit to figure out not to place this on the 5th position... I have rotated many cases through the auto eject and spilled powder everywhere...
Live and learn!! Works good for me for 9, 45, 223, 300BLK, and 308...
Go figure...

Now that's funny, Hint..... Hint.......Hint.... That's one of the reasons why you have a Rockchucker mounted next to your Dillon.

provided it is setup correctly, it works well on just about everything. It grabs a very small area of the bullet just above the case, so bullet shape doesn't really matter, outside of a truncated cone seated deep.

I find it works best for rifle ammo (pulling down surplus). Sometimes the pistol bullet would slip out of the pulling jaws.
I mostly use the Quinetics (the best) kinetic puller, unless I want to weigh the powder charges.
