Description
If you run a Frankford Arsenal Pile Driver Bullet Puller and you've bumped into the limits of the standard carrier, this is the piece that fills the gap. The Pile Driver ships with a carrier that handles cases up to .30-06, which covers most of what lands on a reloading bench. But magnum hunters, long range folks, and anyone working with big belted or straight-walled brass need more room, and that's exactly what this magnum carrier delivers.
What the Magnum Carrier Assembly Adds to Your Pile Driver
The whole job of a carrier is to cradle and support the cartridge while the Pile Driver's spring-powered lever does the work of separating the bullet from the case. This magnum version uses a larger cradle so it can accept cartridges all the way up to the .338 Lapua Magnum. Drop in the bigger carrier, lock it in place, and you're pulling down rounds that simply won't fit the standard unit. It's the same inertia-style pulling action the Pile Driver is known for, just scaled up for the heavier hitters.
Why Reloaders Keep the Magnum Carrier on Hand
Pulling bullets is part of the reloading life. Maybe you loaded the wrong powder charge, want to salvage components from a bad batch, or you're breaking down surplus ammo to reuse the brass and projectiles. The Pile Driver's lever design is a lot gentler on your components than whacking an inertia hammer against the bench, and having both carriers on hand means you never hit a wall when a big magnum case comes across the bench. It swaps in and out quickly, so moving between standard and magnum sized brass is painless.
This is strictly the magnum carrier assembly on its own, meant to work alongside a Pile Driver you already own or are buying separately. If you shoot anything in that .300 Win Mag to .338 Lapua range, it's one of those small add-ons you'll be glad you grabbed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Magnum Carrier Assembly include the Pile Driver Bullet Puller?
No, this is the magnum carrier assembly by itself. It's an accessory designed to work with the Frankford Arsenal Pile Driver Bullet Puller, which is sold separately. You'll need the Pile Driver tool to use this carrier.
What's the largest cartridge this magnum carrier can handle?
The magnum carrier assembly accommodates cartridges up to the .338 Lapua Magnum. That's a solid step up from the .30-06 limit of the standard carrier that comes with the Pile Driver. It's ideal for big magnum rifle brass.
Why would I need the magnum carrier if my Pile Driver already came with a carrier?
The carrier that ships with the Pile Driver only handles cases up to .30-06. If you reload anything larger, like .300 Win Mag or .338 Lapua, the standard carrier won't cradle it properly. The magnum carrier gives you that extra capacity.
Is it easy to swap the magnum carrier in and out of the Pile Driver?
Yes, the carriers are designed to install and lock into place quickly. You can switch between the standard and magnum carriers depending on what brass you're pulling down. The tool includes a safety feature that keeps it from engaging unless the carrier is fully locked in.
