I use these 1/8" Increments. Archives - BAR PULL CNC they work very well and the price is good.

I'm trying to pick up a bar puller for our old Doosan Lynx 220L lathe, but I'm having trouble finding any reviews for most of them on the market. There are bunch of different styles and a wide range of cost, so I'd love some recommendations from y'all before spending money on something that is unusable.
I'm looking for a non actuated style. I would like to be able to pull up to 1" dia steel bars with it. (alot of them look like they would grab aluminum great but not steel)
Also looking for input on if anyone has had luck doing production runs with these turret mounted bar pullers, or if they are more of a gimmick?
Thank you guys!
I've often thought about making one like that for myself and and extra 25 or so to see if they sell. I see about $100 sitting there without the fancy tool black.
I bought the Royal heavy duty. It was a smash and dent special on Ebay for $750, but they're basically bullet proof so it works like new. It's definitely the best puller I've ever used and it gives highly repeatable positioning.
Anyone have experience with that Royal Puller/Part Off tool combo?
Starting the lathe shopping, and everyone has solid deals on pretty basic machines (the Tsugami M08J-II, Genos L250, Takasawa TCC), but they only have 8 stations, unless you spend a boatload to go to 12.

Been curious about these. Say if your running 1" aluminum through a collet and the piece is getting short does the bar stock push through that puller much when you open the collet and it pops forward?
I bought one of these EZ-Pullers a few months ago and have been very pleased with it so far. It's not cheap (~$600 if I recall correctly), but it's nice not having to adjust it for each size stock I run in the machine. I bought their small one (which pulls up to 1.75" round) and will probably pick up its big brother before the end of the year to pull some 3" round that's coming up on a future job.
It might a little bit. I haven't noticed any forward stock movement when the collet opens. At least not enough to cause a problem. They do grip the stock firmly.
Thinking that all of that fucking around costs $0 is a recipe to stay poor.I'm a cheapass, or maybe just poor, IDK. Anyway, bar pulling means parting off. When part geometry allows, I'll using the parting tool to put a groove in the stock. I then mill a piece of .5" x 2.0" AL into a fork that engages this groove. The groove is 0.118" wide so I'll machine the fork to be 0.100" thick in the requisite area, the rest stays the nominal .5" thickness.
I get repetitive pulls with positive engagement for basically $0.
