Purchased a used Black Mamba recently, and it came with one of these. Total game changer for loading mags, comically fast and easy. Best short n sweet video on it I found: https://youtube.com/shorts/2xHRe-6Ub6g?si=B_JURY3Z0IBuSi2T https://tandemkross.com/ultimate-cliploader-by-mcfadden/  Trick I've found is getting the set screw set for your particular mag so that it loads all 10 rounds, and periodically spraying out the Clip Loader with Hornady One Shot, which both dissolves built up .22 wax and coats everything in a very slick dry lube. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007TNXGMK?tag=arfcom00-20 This stuff is also just the best lube for .22 magazines and actions as it slicks things up, removes wax, and does not attract dirt or carbon. |

Glad to find another One Shot fan, I'm surprised this stuff isn't talked about more often. Cool to know it works well in cold weather, not that we get much of that here in Vegas. I find it also works very well for pocket knife actions - smooths them out without attracting pocket lint - and it's also an excellent rust preventative in humid areas. Used it on my knives for a year in Florida and it kept the rust away despite it being a carbon steel. |

I just got one too. Haven’t played much with it, but I’m going to get a can of one shot. Mine seems kinda sticky at letting the rounds flow. Awesome accessory. Attached File |
If life was easy nobody would quit.

I've used one for probably more than 15 years. One problem: I shot my heavy barrel MK so much that the big vertical pin that holds it together cracked. Now days it is used for my MKIV's and it causes the other 22's to get used less than they should be. LOVE it and that's a big understatement. |

>>wait to you discover the lightning grip loader<< This thing rocks! Not only does it work with my TX-22, but it works equally as well with my 15-22 mags. Attached File |
Liberals don't care what you do... as long as it's MANDATORY!

The McFadden loader made shooting lots and lots of ammo so easy that the unexpected happened. |
