One-handed magazine loading

From my experience: Found "real" not generic knock off Uplula mag loader works very well for loading new Hellcat mags. No issues experienced. None. - Mags easily loaded full.
Tried E.T.S. Cam mag loader too. No go at all. Not one single shell into Hellcat mag. Even let new loaded Hellcat mags sit for a week in mags, no difference. Just didn't work for me. ( E.T.S. Cam mag loader does work FANTASTIC on XDM 22 round mags or other 9mm mags though. "Shoots" all 22rnds into mags in about 5 seconds straight from box on 10 rnd rail.)
Both loaders are good, just one doesn't work for me on Hellcat mags is all. By the way, Springfield XDM magloader does work okay on Hellcat mags too. But, Uplula loader still loads Hellcat mags easier. Would be my 1st choice on loading Hellcat mags, especially stiff new ones!
Note: Lady spoke to at Springfield says they load all of their mags one by one by hand! Guessing most of us are just sissies? Ouch?

I've tried a few mag loaders but I prefer to load the mags by hand myself. It's not hard it's all in the technique....Note: Lady spoke to at Springfield says they load all of their mags one by one by hand! Guessing most of us are just sissies? Ouch?

Thanks for all the help. Looks like stiff springs relax enough after use. I still haven't fired my Hellcat, but will. Itza bedside pelletpusher now. My EDC is my Snubby Alaskan .44, accompanied by my Kel-Tech PLR-16 in case of a mobbing of my vehicle. Let's say IF that happens I'll have > 6 rounds to keep the beasts at bay, again IF! I'm changing w/ the times. I'm not looking to go to Houston, but things are popping there. You know those nasty RAVs, Random Acts of Violence. By the way, a '93 CVA made me a right-hander. Fortunately having been ambidextrous has helped me get along pretty damned well for 27 yrs. haha instead of heehee.
