There’s more than one way to reload a pistol or rifle—but each reload serves a different purpose.
John Lovell and Paul break down the major types of firearm reloads, including the emergency reload, speed reload, tactical reload, and reload with retention. They explain when each technique makes sense, whether you should retain the partially loaded magazine, and how your approach may change between a handgun and a rifle.
You’ll also learn:
• The difference between an emergency and in-battery reload
• Why speed reloads are common in competition
• When a tactical reload is the better choice
• How reload-with-retention techniques work
• Which reload is most practical for defensive use
• Whether carrying a spare pistol magazine is still worthwhile
Whether you’re training for concealed carry, competition shooting, rifle classes, or general defensive preparedness, understanding the purpose behind each reload is more important than simply trying to reload faster.
Which reload do you practice the most—and which one do you think is the most practical?
