BMT mooner, my final update :)

[ysrracer]

As I chronicled in my other threads I spent the 90 bucks and bought one for my S&W 627.

 

Using it with TK. .0250 blue moon clips and Remington ammo, it was just too hard to turn it. I'm 61 and have a little arthritis in my right hand. I even tried loading four rounds in it, thereby only loading one at a time, instead of two.

 

No go, I still couldn't turn it.

 

Then I had an idea, since I couldn't make the groove in the brass any smaller in diameter, maybe I could make the opening in the clip larger?

 

I got a round file, and gave it a try. Four licks with the file was too much. Two licks wasn't enough.

 

But much like Goldilocks, three was just right. Now that I can use it, I see why you guys like it. It's pretty slick, and works well.

 

Thanks for all the help and suggestions.
