Ok, so I'm nuts for "stuff". I ordered the Speed Beez (great company and products I really like) shaker loader. A few hours later, literally, I learned of the McFadden Ultimate Clip Loader so I ordered one. They arrived yesterday. They are very similar. The McF has been on Ozempic for a while. The McF is the clear one, the SB smoked. I'm not sure yet how the screw on the outside of the McF adjusts the depth when loading but will figure it out when I test them. The McF earns the first provisional check-mark for the svelte shape that will take less space in the range bag.
I've been using the McFadden Ultimate Clip Loader for my MkIV mags for a couple years now and I am a big fan. Sometimes it takes a little persuasion, depending on how the magazine's feed lips are, but even when it does, it's faster than loading any other way I've found. I just wish they'd adhere to my preferred nomenclature and call it the Ultimate Magazine Loader. :)
Their Lightnin' Grip Loader also does very good service for my 22LR AR15-pattern magazines.

YES! Magazine not clip! We may have to start a campaign. :) It won't top my Tippmann loader. That thing is incredibly fun to use. But if it is even close to as good I'll be very happy I got it.
