| ok here i am getting ready for the az shoot next weekend and am loading up alot of garand clips and my finger is staring to hurt. does ayone have any tips or is there some tool i can get that makes this alot easyer? |

Believe it or not, I know an older National Match M1 shooter that made a clip loading tool. It looks like an old "knife" switch. The wooden base has a "box" that holds the clip, with the top exposed. He drops rounds into the clip, and uses the wooden lever or knife switch to press the last round down into place. |

Take your operating rod and bolt out of your rifle,insert empty clip load from top as any rifle,when clip full hit clip ejector out comes loaded clip, repeat process! Dont know if it will work,but sounds right! Edited to say that sounds crazy,as all you would have to do is cock the rifle take out gas plug put in dowel rod cut just the right length,put gas plug back then load empty clips as discribed!
