These popular ammo speed loaders are the highest-reviewed and most-liked by Amazon shoppers.
Anyone who's spent time at a gun range knows the one and only drag about it is reloading. Stuffing bullets into a magazine can be a time-consuming effort, and it will do a number on your digits as you fill more and more. It just isn't efficient, and it's the one thing that's keeping you from sending more lead down the range.
But if you're using a Glock pistol, a Colt AR-15, or even a SIG Mosquito in .22 long rifle rimfire, a speed loader (or a speedloader if you're into conserving words) is just the thing to decrease your woes.
We wanted to get a good picture of the most popular speed loaders you can find, and thought Amazon would be a good place to check first (besides, free shipping for Prime members doesn't hurt, does it?). Based on written reviews (4 or 5 stars only) and sale numbers, these are five of the most popular speed loaders you can get your hands on.
These picks don't cover every single type of speed loader available (in fact, a rifle magazine speed loader is still a relatively new product and a little tough to find), but they'll give you a great sense of what's offered and at what prices.
