I though I would pass this on. I believe I have found fastest, most effective moon clip loader/unloader tool. I have several different tools but no single tool has worked as well as this one. I wish I had developed it. mooncliptool.com

Cool, now if I can just find a S&W 625 JM.

Looks like a good tool.
I switched to these: Ez Moon Clips
Brownells sells them as Rimz clips. S&W REVOLVER RIMZ SPEEDLOADER | Brownells
They work well and need no tool.

Depending on how much you shoot, Mooncliptool is OK for loading but a little slow. It is very slow unloading the clips, you are MUCH better off unloading the clips with a notched tube type demooner. Brownells sell these or they are very easy to make out of tubing.
I shoot a USPSA match every weekend and load a bunch of clips. If you want the best by far it is the BMT tool. It is at least 3 or 4 times as fast loading and nothing compares unloading the clips. You can also check the moonclips and make sure they are still flat with the BMT tool. Mine makes me giggle everytime I use it. Just wish I would have found it earilier.
If someone walked off with my mooncliptool I wouldn't be to upset. If someone walked off with my BMT tool as soon as I got off the phone ordering a new one I would start hunting whoever took it down.
BMT is more expensive than the others but the first time you use it you will be a believer.

In my experence these are good for plinking at the range but I would not trust them for self defence or in competition where reloading the gun on the clock is required. They do load and unload easy.

I also have the notched tube type unloader. It works good but like the mooncliptool, it only seperates one at a time. The upside is that it also holds the brass in the handle until you are done. My first unloader was that can opener looking deal, that will work in a pinch, it is not fast or easy to use. My old loader tools were a pair of pliers that look like replaceable tip snap ring pliers that have enough flex it is hard to keep everything aligned so you do not bend the clips. My other one is a bench mounted tool that you lever the rounds in one at a time. It does not work if it is not clamped or screwed to a bench, kind of stinks in the field. The BMT tool looks interesting, but this is the first I saw it. I learn something new every day. Thanks

Last year when I purchased a S&W 640 Pro Series I also ordered a J38-5 tool and have been very pleased with its flawless function. I am using the tool with S&W moon clips. I can reload the 640 in 3.5 seconds.

I have the moonclip tool, it does a great job. I just purchased the BMT. WOW, this thing works great. They are not cheap but they are fast and easy to use.
