Well, went to the range today and bought one of the BC mag loaders. Wasn't sure how well it would work but decided for the price it was worth a try. Well I wasn't sure if it was much faster until I loaded 2 mags in the time it took a guy beside me to load his 1. Actually my other 25 rounder he was trying. Besides being a little faster it is much cleaner and easier. Just dump a 50 round box into the top, give it a shake and load up. Well worth the 30 some bucks I paid. Shot 2 bricks and it did well. If you are thinking of getting one do it.
