This looks interesting.  Not sure how practical it is.  From the demonstration video, it looks like the rounds have to be in the box with bullet up.  Being a rifle round reloading virgin, I'm not sure if that is how they are normally placed in the box like this.

I believe the MSRP is around $90 which is a lot better than the $300 Butler Creeks is asking for their high end mag loader.

Or you could get an Up-Lula for $35. They do work.

Yeah...I've got one of those.  It works great, but some other loaders look even faster.  Like I tell my wife, faster is better.
