Can .30 M2 Tracer rounds be pulled down and the primed brass reloaded?

[GONRA]

Over the decades GONRA has found one should hava variety
of "bullet pullers" to satisfy the particular project needs ......

Seat the bullet about 1/16" deeper in the case with your seating die ...
... This breaks the crimp and the sealants grip on the projectile ...
After that use your kinetic puller , it must be used on a "Solid" surface ...
Big solid block of wood on a concrete slab ... 4 medium hard whacks will pull the bullet almost out ... keep an eye on bullet's progress ... make the last "whack" a medium light hit so the powder doesn't go flying everywhere .
Easy to recover primed brass , powder and bullets if you know the "Trick " .
The kinetic puller leaves no damage or even any marks to the projectiles ... Sweet !

Yep he'll know the trick by the time he gets the second box done

Cautionary tales-

Heads up for Californians- up to 10 years for possession of a tracer bullet.

Also nearly lost a local commercial range near Spokane, WA to wildfire from rifleman shooting up a box of old ammo someone gave him that had a tracer in the mix. Now they check all ammo with a magnet as steel core also can create sparks.
