Another vote for an Uplula they work with every centerfire mag I have tried. A little pricey but worth every penny

The upLULA is the best.

I have one in my range bag and another in my nightstand.

While the uplula is very good, I've found that loading the magazines on a table or even with the base against your leg gives you enough of a steady platform to put the cartridges into the magazine very easily.

Another trick is to tap the magazine (or "bang it") after most of the rounds are loaded. This lines the cartridges up so there are no hang ups which make loading more difficult. Sort of like the Vietnam era GI's banging M16 mags against their helmets before inserting them into their guns.

Check out 0:46 of this. At least the rest of the video is fun to watch.

Default uplula or butler creek?

I recently got the M&P Shield 9mm and have seen some people online say that the uplula gets hung up on the side of the magazine so am wondering if the butler creek version of the maglula works better. For those who have tried both, which would you recommend?

Pidgeon Frap!! I use an UPLULA nearly every week with my Shield 9. Works fine with both the 7 & 8 round mags.

There is a slight hang up, sometimes, while the mag centers itself in the UPLULA. But its not a stop. Just keep pushin'. Works fine.
