Abstract: A device which facilitates the speed loading of shells into a shotgun and which is accurately alignable with the magazine of the shotgun for readily repeatable operation. Such device comprises a mechanism for providing a location position relative to the magazine, and an elongated tube, adapted to contain a plurality of shells in end to end relation. The tube includes an opening defined in one end thereof through which such shells are inserted into and removed from said tube. At least one projection is provided in the tube for releaseably retaining such shells within said tube. Additionally, an external means is provided for engaging the location mechanism so as to accurately register the open end of the tube at the location position, and a plunger located within the tube rapidly expells such shells from the tube past the projection into the magazine when the tube is registered in its location position relative to the magazine.
