Pulled some bullets using wire cutters and press. So bullets were scared with wire cutter marks,do you think that destroys bullet accuracy ? I was thinking once it makes its trip down the bbl the scars are smoothed out by the rifling ?

You won't be able to hit the barn door with them!!

I think your right,groups were massive .
You'll hit every thing you shoot at @ about 15 yds pretty much for certain.
Those inertia hammers are junk. You have to pad the inside so the bullet doesn't deform.
On a crimped light bullet you will beat through the basement floor. Get the Hornady
cam puller and never look back.
WARNING, from personal experience.
Don't use the inertia hammer type with primers that bounce due to very loose primer pockets.
Whacked the concrete floor, the primer ignited on the second whack. flew around the shop bouncing off of more things than one would thing. The 99 grains of US-896 didn't ignite.
I would throw them away.
You needed to have used this puller:
It's on sale at Impact Bullet Puller
for 11 bucks or so.
There are many other types of bullet pullers but more expensive. The one above is the one
I use.
For you guys with the inertia hammers - Get a short piece of 2X6 pine board and pound on that. Never had any luck pounding on something concrete hard.
