I use plastic mailing tubes, cut in length to hold 10 moonclips. Keep them out of elements, load and store as many as you have moonclips available. Similar to this: http://www.imprintitems.com/custom/spl/9329601?utm_source=google&utm_medium=base&utm_campaign=SPLfeed http://www.uline.com/BL_3651/Clear-Plastic-Tubes I use them for .45 ACP x 6, .38 special x 8, .38 short colt x 8 with the same results. When they crack at edges, just replace with new ones.

Every time I load moonclips, I put the one on a flat surface (mooning tool back side), and check for a daylight. If it looks good, ammo goes in there. Any doubts, moonclip goes into "fix jar". Once I get a bunch in there, here goes my straightening tool.

I just had my 625 4" checked at Winter Nationals, came up to 40.8 oz with stock Hogue rubber grips. It makes SSR weight.

1. IDPA, sometimes USPSA, ICORE 2. Twice a month 3. Last year there were 7, 6 of which were with revolver. 4. 2008 Winter Nationals 5. Already doing that. USPSA, ICORE, probably steel 6. It's a different mental game. There is no room for make-up shots. 7. I'm just promoting revolver shooting to others. Regards, Gene

It's going to be a recoil buffer in there. If there is, it might prevent the slide to come back all the way to reach slide stop notch. If that is the case, I made the buffer thinner, that solved the problem. Regards, Gene

Curt, I was in the rush to catch your train with staff I have on my wish list, so completely forgot to bring up my appreciation to you taking efforts of putting it all together. I'd like to add an additional 3 speedloaders with handles #277 for 625 .45 AR. Which makes it total of 6 Speedloaders/handles for me. Do you have any "order count" as of today? Any tentative dates? Regards, Gene

I would like to get 3 of # 277 with handles for my 625 .45 Autorim. Would be easier for Bones to convince me and Gary to shoot in SSR. Regards, Gene

Steve J, which powder from your experience is less smoky with this combination, like 230 bullet jacketed or plated? Gene

I've being reloading for quite a while. Within last year I came back to 9mm/ESP load and started reloading for that caliber. All I shoot is 147gr powered by 3.3gr of Universal Clays. I started with hardcast bullets from Northeastbullet. Can't complaint about accuracy from Glock 34. It serves me OK for IDPA needs. It's very clean burning load, but man it does smoke a lot. Shooting outdoors is no-brainer, clearing COF indoors - is the 'mission impossible'. After reading a lot of info on the subject, I've tried those variations: Moly, no-lube Lube, no-moly Lube, moly No lube, no-moly. All of the above give you a cloud of smoke. The only benefit of bullets without lube is less mess and my dies stay cleaner. Next attemp was Masterblaster polycoated bullet, more pleasant to handle, no mess around the bench, same recipe... same smoking. Well, I've purchased 1K of Zero FMJ bullets, loaded to the same PF, incresed load for 0.2gr of the same Universal Clays, went out to try it...IT STILL SMOKES!. Going to a match, I need to pick factory rounds to shoot indoors because of that. Could you give some recommendations on different powder or some other factors I overlooked in my reloading jorney?
