Hello. I bet it is the thicker rims on this ammo causing the problem then. It "worked" with AR in my "short" test but I didn't do any "long term" stuff using AR.

Hello and thanks. I'll be in the market for sure for one of the leather one and probably the nylon, too.

I ordered sets for .44 & the 8 round .357; the .44's arrived a couple days later - the 8 rounders are backordered.
Been using them daily since, with my 44 Special, without any issues or problems. It's about time these were made, and they should sell a lot.

Thanks! This is serious good news!

Got two packs for my .44 today. Excellent product. Can't wait until the leather wallets are released.

"Are they making wallets to hold the loaded speed strips? I looked at their web site and couldn't find them."

I received my three sets of .44 cal strips today. They are really nice and work great. Loaded all six and now all I have to do is find a comfortable, concealable holster to carry my 329PD and I will be set.

Not often I endorse a product, BUT I just received my speed strips today and all I can say it---Whata product! Mine is the 44-45 and I ordered 4 sets. Easy to load, easy to use and great customer service.

I ordered four sets of the .44/.45 strips on Thursday and had them by the following Monday. They're GREAT! I also got one of the nylon wallets that holds a loaded strip. It does carry nicely in your pocket, but using the wallet would slow things down a bit if a quick reload is your goal. The company's phone system is a bit confusing; they don't have a lot of help on the phones. You can leave a message and they will call you back, but I'm an impatient sort so I kept calling until I reached a human being. They were nice enough not to get irritated at all the messages I left.

Just got a pair for the .500 Mag. They work just fine although someone might tell them that the .500 is a five shot gun not a six shot revolver. Don

Once of the reasons I prefer speed strips to speed loaders is that sometimes I want to "fill up" before I'm completely empty.
Don,
I have a M620 with the seven shot cylinder and was thinking of picking up the strip that holds eight rounds for it. Are these designed so you could trim off the strip with a sharp knife and the strip would function as a seven shot strip?

I didn't try cutting one position off of mine but it APPEARS that it would work just fine. Good luck. Don

Hello. The good folks at Tuff Products responded to the call for a .41 Magnum Quick Strip shortly after their .44/.45 series hit the market and I am happy to report that these will be available in the very, very near future.
This Quick Reloading Strip is for the .41 Magnum and obviously holds six cartridges. I loaded this strip and carried it loose in Docker-type pants in a front pocket for 4 hours. All of the cartridges remained in the strip. Note the "bumps" on the tab at the end of the strip. They provide a very nice "grip" when using the strip.
Of course there is no need to carry these strips loose since the company offers carrier pouches for them.
This pouch will hold two Tuff Quick Strips, but works fine with only one if you choose. It works just as great with the .41 Magnums as it did with .44 Specials and .45 Colt rounds.
Closed, the Tuff Products ammo pouch is both secure on the belt and unobtrusive. This would be of less importance in the hunting field than would be the case in urban jungles where extra ammunition might need to be quickly at hand.
If you already have the .44/.45 Strips, don't worry about getting them confused with those for the .41 Magnum. Tuff Products very neatly marks the appropriate ammo for their Quick Strip on its back. Nice touch in my opinion.
Tuff Products' Quick Reloading Strips are currently available for .44 Special/Magnum, .45 Colt, each holding six cartridges as well as one for .22 rimfire which holds ten and eight rounds in a strip for .327 Magnum. (It should be noted that the .44/.45 strips work with .410 Shotgun shells and the .460!) Other strips fit the following: .475 Linebaugh, .480 Ruger and the mighty .500 S&W. They are available in .38/.357 as well...but with eight rounds as opposed to the competition's six.
The .41 Magnum strips are expected to be ready for sale around the middle of May as are strips for .45 Auto Rim! If you want to pre-order, a simple explanation is at Tuff Products' site and there is certainly no "requirement" to do so.
Take a look at Tuff Products at www.tuffproducts.com for prices and other products you might be interested in.

I am not associated with this company in any way but have to say that I've been very positively impressed with their Quick Strips and carry pouches. In my opinion, prices are not outlandish for the strips (two per package) and they simply do what they are supposed to do: carry conveniently and allow quicker reloading of extra revolver ammunition.
I own but one .41 Magnum, a "shooter grade" S&W Model 58. Though I have a speedloader or two for it, I am very favorably impressed with Tuff Products' Quick Strips for it and will be using them in conjunction with their carry pouches in the future due to the "low profile" and convenience.
As a frequent revolver shooter/user, I appreciate having these reloading strips available in other than the .38/.357 version that has been around for decades.

Personally, those things will never replace a good Speedloader in any caliber. They've been around since the '60s and I saw a few for the larger calibers even back then. Seems like somebody reinvents these every few years. No thanks!!!

Hello. If they aren't worth it to you, I wouldn't buy. Some folks do like the strip type thing. Just passing that they exist along. I figure people will decide it they want them or not. I like 'em. You apparently don't. That's what makes the world go 'round.
