A Beginner’s Guide to Using Speed Loaders

Once you’ve entered into the world of revolver shooting, it won’t be long before you discover how important it is to have a speed loader. These devices can greatly decrease your reload time when you are at the range or in the heat of competition. The less time you spend reloading, the more time you can spend perfecting your shot.

Below, we’ll answer a few of the most frequently asked questions about speed loaders. When you’re ready to buy one, check out our online store for a wide selection of speed loaders and other revolver accessories.

How does a speed loader work?

Speed loaders hold ammunition in the pattern of your cylinder. This makes it easy to quickly insert and drop these rounds into the cylinder so you can get back to shooting.

What makes Speed Beez speed loaders the best?

What sets our loaders apart from other speed loaders is the mechanism that we use to secure and release the rounds. Many other manufacturers incorporate a twist method to hold the rounds. While this system works, it is awkward and difficult to use. We use a simple push mechanism that pushes all of the rounds into place at once, instead of fumbling with a twist mechanism.

Are speed loaders one-size-fits-all?

No. You’ll need to purchase a speed loader that’s made specifically for your firearm, because the cylinder of a revolver varies from model to model. Without the right speed loader, the rounds will not align properly with the cylinder.
