12S4 Sport Series - 12up Shell Holder, Grab 4 - Black Clips

I bought mine shortly after trying 3-gun. I took a price-conscious approach and bought the 12S4 shell holder. I have been practicing with mine regularly since it arrived. It is easy to load with shells, holds the shells securely (at least in a practice environment), allows for easy removal of the shells in the proper position for quad loading and generally works well for its intended purpose.It does not have the niceties you will find on the more expensive shell holders. It does not have tabs or index devices to let you precisely place the shells to within the same 1mm location every single time you load it. It does not need them. It lets you place the shells closely enough, consistently enough that it works and works well.This product is a barebones quad-loading shell holder at a very reasonable price. If you are unsure about what gear you want or how seriously you want to get into competition shooting, this is the ideal shell holder. It has everything you need and nothing you don't, it comes in at a reasonable price point leaving you with more money for ammo and other vital gear and it does exactly what it is supposed to do.

Just received thus a few days ago and I am thoroughly impressed.Very solid construction, multiple attachment points, holds shells very securely.The quad-loading technique is new to me so it's going to take some, (alot!), of practice. Already though, I am faster loading with this holder than I was with my old Tactical Tailor elastic loop shell holder, (read: grab one shell at a time the old way).So far it seems like an excellent product. Will update this review if I experience any issues over time.

I took this to the 2017 Zombies in the Heartland match and came in 3rd in Amateur division. I run a versamax that benny hill at triangle shooting sports did his package on, holds 10+1+1ghost loaded. Quad loading is smooth and by far the fastest technique for tac-ops shooters. I've tried aloof of different shell caddies and load techniques including other taccom products. Honestly I like the sport series the best, both because of the price, and because of the retention and ease of use. They are simple and they work! Obviously they are a cheaper product, and the only reason I didn't give five stars is because I haven't had them long enough to gauge their longevity. I don't know if these things are only going to last one season or five seasons. But for the money, they work. I attach mine with tech locks to my CR speed belt. Its great being able to add and remove them from your belt as stages demand. I've seen a lot of other shooters using ELS clips, and I may be venturing to that system later.I reload strong hand, strong and weak side quad loading. I twin load weak hand on strong side. Anyway the 12S4 seems to provide enough shells for most stages. Put it on the strong side in front of my pistol at a slight angle for my right hand to get to. For additional shells I had plenty of room for a 8S4 in the center of my belt.

These are good for my entry level into action shooting. I use these for 3 gun and they retain the shells very nicely. You do have to sort of rip the shells out of the carrier but it suits my needs. I want retention over speed at this early stage in my action shooting skill level.

I bought this to make a quick chest rig. It is hard to do quad loads from them but I was on a tight budget.

I have used this caddy in a couple of competitions now. I have been very pleased with the construction quality. This does exactly what I need it to do, which is to hold ammo securely while moving through a stage until I need to reload. Solid product when paired with a good belt clip.

Excellent shell caddy. Holds shells tightly, but allows them to be pulled off when you are ready. Tek lok compatibility allows a variety of mounting angles and options. Takes up about as much space as anything else laterally, perhaps a little more than some others in terms of how far it sticks out from your belt. Can't beat the price.

I want to start by saying that I have a ton of Taccom products, and I am a big fan of the company and the products they produce. However, this quad load setup was not the best choice for me. Dozens of shooters that I have squadded up with over the years have had great results with these quad caddies, but they are a bit too narrow for me to get a consistent grab. We all know the grab and strip of the shells is paramount to a good quad load. No matter how much I practiced, I just couldn't get a good grab, and I soon realized that it was because the channel between the two arms that hold the shells is narrower than my fingers and palm. I should state that I have very large hands. I work in healthcare, and I have to wear XL nitrile gloves, and they are still very tight on me. I wear a 9.5 in sterile gloves, which is nearly impossible to find in the hospital. My hand is about 4.6" wide across the proximal knuckles. If you have very large hands like I do, these may not work well for you. I found the Invictus Practical quad caddies to work better for my hands. If you just have slightlyu large hands, these will work great for you. I can also say that I can grab two from this caddy without any problems, so I run it as a backup on shotgun only stages when it is pouring rain and is very cold, and I may not feel comfortable quad loading with cold, wet (and possibly muddy) hands.
