Standard Carrier Assembly for the Pile Driver
The Frankford Arsenal Pile Driver bullet puller uses inertia to pull bullets from loaded cartridges. You strike the tool against a hard surface and the bullet separates from the case under its own momentum. The carrier assembly is the component that holds the case in place while you pull. A secure carrier is essential for a clean and safe pulling process.
This standard carrier assembly is the base variant, designed for the most common rifle and handgun cartridges. The carrier accepts cases with a head diameter up to .30-06 Springfield, which means virtually all standard calibers fit: .223 Remington, .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, .30-06, and similar cartridges.
When to replace
The carrier assembly is a wear item. With regular use, the polymer holder can loosen, causing cases to sit less securely. You will notice this when the case shifts or tilts during pulling, leading to damaged brass or a bullet that will not release. Replace the carrier as soon as you notice this happening.
Standard or magnum?
Frankford Arsenal offers two carrier sizes for the Pile Driver: this standard carrier (up to .30-06) and a magnum carrier (up to .338 Lapua Magnum). For most reloading sessions the standard carrier is all you need. If you also work with magnum calibers, you will want both carriers on hand.

Practical tips
An inertia bullet puller like the Pile Driver is indispensable for disassembling loads, correcting test rounds, or fixing a crooked seat. It is faster than a collet-type puller and does not require a reloading press. Keep a spare standard carrier on hand so you are never caught without one when the original wears out.
This standard carrier assembly suits any reloader who works with standard rifle or handgun calibers and needs a replacement carrier for the Pile Driver.
