I am sure this has been discussed before but the search did not yield what I was looking for.
How many folks load their cylinders using a press with the cylinder removed from the revolver?
I would think this would work well for Remingtons but do some folks do this for Colts too? Removing the wedge to reload?
I think that loading the revolver with the built in ram using a loading stand is the way to go but there are so many neat cap and ball revolvers with short barrels. These have short loading levers if they even have a loading lever at all. I would think that a press would work well for these but I would think that taking the cylinder off and putting it back on would be a PITA if you are using a Colt clone.
