Any one have a preference to a tool used to insert and remove cartridges from moon clips? I have the little metal hook type but wanted something a little faster. I see one that Dillon sells that is like a pair of pliers It looks ok.
This is not for competition just arthritis.

    I don't shoot enough rounds to require a tool for my S&W610. A box of 50 and a few moon clips a session. There was this one tool you spun it one way to load and spin it the other to de-moon. The other ones were able to load and unload two at a time that looked like plastic pliers. I reckon youtube is your friend to see one in action.

    Go with the ez moon clips. I switched over to them and really like them. No tool needed, soft and flexible and don't bend.

    Just use my fingers with my Ruger Redhawk 45 Colt / 45 ACP.
    Speaking of which, I think I'll go blast some 45 ACP. If nothing else it will scare off the Deer Hunters that don't belong here. :o:o:o
