Different ammo and HKS speed loaders.

I was loading up some HKS loaders with 38 SPL to try out my new SW 19 (new to me - got it used) in a match. Not the fastest loader but that's what I have and I just want to wring out the gun. Since we have some national revolver champs in our matches - I'm not worried about winning.

But I found some 38s are hard to seat in the loaders. Seems like some rounds and little hands don't mesih or align?

Thoughts?

welcome to 2010

hks speed loaders vs safarilands speedloaders was all the rage circa 1981.

Hks are a good way to hold your ammo.But if you want to do an autual speed reload better look to safiiland.

Important: Every hks speedloader I've ever seen going back 30 years is still serviceable.

Could be because hks were not used much, but I think hks are robust. I have worn-out more than a few safarilands. I use safilands because they are faster and they do give you warning they're starting to wear-out.

Good Luck.
