Speed Loader Question
« on: March 08, 2008, 03:37:12 PM »
I just bought an average speed loader to give me some aid in loading my SW629.  It works fine but it has a quality that rose a question.  When I lock in the shells there is enough play that they basically wiggle in their holes when I shake it gently.  This was a $8 loader and I'm just happy that it makes loading easier but for the guys that shoot for times with a reload here's the question.

Is there a loader that has a "tighter" feel/design. Is the wiggle necessary to find the cylinder chambers for a quick loading?  I could see that being the case.  If the loader was too tight you'd have to line it up PERFECTLY  every time.  Just wondering.

No problem Zen, after the years, I sort of like that rattle noise as I drive down the freeway, the reloaders in the change/console... a happy sound!  :IBCOOL:

Good thing WA doesn't have toll roads.  You'd be slanggin ammo at the toll trolls and jamming em up.  "Quit holding up the line!"  ;) (I don't miss toll roads, tell you what).
