    Straight up competition use. It has no other function. Rapid fire strings require 10 shots down range with a mandatory reload. Standard capacity M1 enblocs of 8 rds require creative solutions. This being one. As well as single loading, many different ways to skin a cat

    Yes indeed, that's why there are two round enblocs to complete the ten round string.

    I've used the S.L.E.D. a lot when shooting from the bench for load testing.

    When I competed with the Garand I loaded the 2 the hard way. Could not do it now but back then I was Ok with it.

    I did buy a 2 rd SLED and gave it a try. Turned out I needed a screwdriver to disengage the thing from the receiver.

    That cost me a DNF for a rapid prone stage in the first match I used the sled because I was not ready. So the SLED went into a box of "who needs it gear".
    “After all is said and done, successful rifle shooting on the range is nothing more than first finding a rifle and lot of ammunition which will do precisely the same thing shot after shot, and then developing the same skill in the rifleman.” ~ Capt. E. C. Crossman (The Book of the Springfield)
