Thanks Guys
I think I'll need all the loaders I can get. Been working on the left hand reload, don't quite have it down yet, but its getting better

Mike,
If you're going to shoot open, use the loaders. If you're going to weak hand load, remove the bracket. It will give you a lot more room.

Dan,
In the video, I am using the Tec-loaders. I would load 2 in the gun, shoot 1 shot then load 4 with the tec-loaders. My reload still needs alot of work,

 

[GTOShootr]

That's pretty fast!

Now do it on the move.

When I try it on the move, anything faster than a slow walk, stuff goes flying everywhere. I gonna run a shotgun stage tonight at ames if you are interested in coming up

 

[Dan S]

Usually the speedloader guys use their strong hand, rolling the gun over. Go to mulitgun.com and watch the videos. All of them are tactical class, not open. Kurt shoots slower, but loads faster!
Oh yeah.....you need longer loaders!

A big thanks to all the guys that put the match on today, It was a lot of fun.
Learn a lot for my first match. especially that you still need to aim, and missing just screws up your round count, causing all sorts of problems. also if you whip the tec- loader out of the pouch, round will go flying before you can load them

I wanted to thank everyone that came to the match. I particularly want to thank Andy Gagnon and RIMLC in Rehoboth, MA. for lending us some steel for the match. Andy manufactures the clay holders used on the 'prone' stage, and lent us one of his strong, light, and easily broken down plate stands. Thanks Andy! You can check out his site here:
