Nickle plated cases have been a bit slicker coming out of my 442, but look at the videos and go smooth and slow 'till you them all falling straight down. It was surprisingly easy for me to block one with the thumb of the gun hand.

A couple things I've been working on to save reload time using speed strips.
-Drawing speed strips from something other than a pocket will really save time. I need to find a belt pouch that will hold one or two eight-round length speed strips. (maybe just a sunglass case?)
-Loading four rounds and indexing the empty chamber in line with the barrel is still quicker for me than loading all five.
-Loading four rounds and NOT indexing the empty chamber is faster still.
-Loading two and indexing so you get a bang on the next trigger pull is fastest, and could be done twice before ejecting brass again.
-When time counts let cartridges that get loose fall.
-Learn the proper ways of using your revolver as an impact weapon.
-As we already know, the rounder/pointier the bullet the easier/faster it will get in the chamber. (no more full wadcutters during practice and choose carry reloads accordingly)

Ron3 I do have a 6 round of 38 speed strip pouch from RKBA and it is a great way to carry six 38 rounds, the strip comes out easily, no fuss or muss.
Thanks.
Thats not bad. I was hoping to find/make something that will hold the strips horizontally (Maybe with a buttoned flap/cover) since my strips are pretty long. They hold eight rounds but I normally load them with five. They are easier to grab/handle.

I carry a model S&W model 36 and a backup model 36 as well hard to beat the NY reload for timed fire despite how fast you think you can reload under stress.

I was examining my friend's new, unfired 442 and with permission dry fired it. Each time sparks flew from the firing pin hole in the firewall. Obviously friction was the cause. In 47 years of handling Smith's I've never before observed this event and can't help but wonder whether or not it's a real issue.
