Revolver-Cylinder Loading stand

[beng]

Thanks guys.....I think I will go with the Powder Inc. "Cylinder Loading Stand" Why I ask is I'm pushing 73 and for a few years now I have gotten arthritis in my hands. I do not want to stop shooting but trying to hold a pistol and load the cylinders at the same time, is very hard. I have a few Cylinders (4) to load before I go to the range and this will help me. As long as I can hold a pistol (Black Powder) someway and load it, I will keep shooting.(now putting in the primers is something else) I have had to change my shooting with BPCR to Bench Rest now. But I'm shooting

Is PowderInc making them stands again?

Because they weren't, and because it looked cooler, I bought the Tower of Power from Big Lube. Dick custom made me some adapters for a .31 pocket revolver and the tower works fantastic.

It's sturdy enough for my children to use and pass on to their kids someday. A buddy bent his "cabela's" type already, somehow. Bore Butter has been the best lube to keep it singing.

We only have one, the loser of the draw uses a pistol stand we made from scrap, which in itself is very nice and helps load the Walker just fine.

If you have some mechanical ability and scrap steel you can make some really nice ones for nothing but a little elbow grease that will be stronger and work just as well as most commercial offerings.
Also, a spud to keep the cylinder still is not necessary as the hemisphere on the end of the loading jag will do all the centering needed and the cylinder will not tilt.

I bought the cheapy from bp44. Then I modified it for loading my LeMat. The loading lever on the gun is totally insufficient to even get a .451 round ball into the cylinder. It felt like it was gonna break every time I used it. This makes shooting it much easier. Now if it just wasn't so complicated to clean...

Since I shoot both .36 Navy Colt snubbies and .44 Pietta Navy snubbies it is simpler to use two loaders. One from Powder Inc for the .36 and Dick Dastardly (Big Lube Bullets a shameless plug)
for the .44.
I like them both, the Tower of Power from Big Lube is pretty but both work. quite well.

I don't know if they make it but I feel obligated to try the RMC loader because they're about an hour down the road from me.
