i recently bought an LCR revolver and i was wondering how many speedloaders (if any) should i have? this is going to be one of my CCW handguns and also used for plinking/target practice.

According to some of the guys I shoot with you should invest an equal amount of money in magazines as you did for the firearm. That would get you a lot of speedloaders!
I'd probably want to carry 2 reloads, but don't find speed loaders comfortable to carry most of the time. If I am carrying a revolver I probably have two speed strips in a pocket. If I'm wearing a jacket I will drop a speed loader or two in the pocket.
I don't have a lot of faith that I will survive any encounter with a revolver that requires multiple reloads...
As for plinking - I'd want as many speed loaders as I can afford.

Depends upon where you are plinking: If you are paying for range time to reload speed loaders ...... I think you need more of them.

With my LCR in .357 magnum,I carry 4 5 shot HKS M36 and they work real well for me. I never did use the strips like mentioned but with practice and practice,you will get the hang of the speedloaders any ones that you buy. richgp100z
