Moon clip recommendations

[Kentuckyguy]

I have a S&W 625 on the way and I was looking to stock up on moon clips and a moon clip loading tool.
Are there any that work better than others? Any certain brands to avoid?

I use mostly Ranch Products for my moons. I have a 25-2, a 646 in 40 S&W, a few ruger 9mm DA's, and a 10mm Match Champion.
I have zero complaints about them.

I get most of mine from Revolver Supply. Never had a problem. I have a 1917 and a 625 PC

I always bought Ranch. With the 45 it's not real critical.

Any recommendations on a clip loader? So far I really like the Dillon.

For shooting at the range I prefer the poly Rimz moonclips. No need for any special tools. Very easy to load and unload by hand. For carrying, I use the Smith & Wesson clips in my 1917 Colt, but any of the quality manufacturers should work just fine.

I’ve been looking at the Speed Beez but can’t find much info on them.

BMT is the best loader/UN loader I have used

BMT tool and Ranch Products clips

I shoot 10-20k rounds a year out of moonclipped revolvers. For a S&W 625 I'd suggest ordering a 100 pk of Ranch Products clips and a BMT loading tool. 8 shot guns are a different story, but for 6 shot ACP guns the stamped clips work just fine.

Thanks I ordered 20 of the speed beez but haven’t had a chance to shoot them yet.

Just another note,, for an unloading tool,, I used a piece of aluminum tubing (with the proper ID,) and added a notch & handle to it. Easy to build, and works like a champ! I have a couple of different unloading tools myself. I use the California Competition works tool sold by Dillon a lot.
