I have actually dumped all five rounds on the ground being a bit aggressive with the reload.

Speedbeez makes one spectifically for the S&W M69 L Frame. I haven't tried the M69 version but have used their 10 shot M617 speedloaders and they work as advertised. Not sure how well their retention system would work with the M69 version.

44 Magnum Speed Loader | 44 Mag Speed Loader | 5 Shot Speedloader -Speed Beez

FWIW,

Are the rounds retained by the coil spring running along the circumference? Shades of the old Dade speed loader! Which I quit using as rounds kept falling out.
