Speedloader for a 6 shot Model 617

[ric426]

Does the HKS 22-K Speedloader work with a 6 shot 617? It works with the K-22, Model 17 & 18, so I assume it would, but can someone confirm that? I would think that the 617 cylinder has the same dimensions, but I could certainly be wrong about that.

Yes. I have a couple and they work fine with my 6 shot 617s.

HKS makes them but try these for some real fun.

DS-10-SPEED is a custom made speed loader for S&W 617 10 shot revolvers. - Windows Live

I will second the use of the DS10Speed loaders for 22's. Dave makes them for both the 6 and 10 shot K-frame as well as the 6 shot J-frame.

Thanks for the recommendation. I really just want a speedloader for convenience at the range, so $9.50 for an HKS is a little more attractive, but I sent Dave an email about getting a loading block. For the price I'd rather buy one of his blocks than try to make my own.

Dave's are the Bee's Knee's combined with the loading block they make reloading almost fun.
