It's a prototype. He tried to get it marketed but nobody wanted to fool with it.

You could do the same thing with a standard powder thrower. Just C clamp one to a loading bench and either use the existing tube, or make a more angled tube that fits more easily in your cylinder's chamber. Once you adjusted the thrower to the grains you wanted thrown, all you have to do is flip the handle to turn the drum and drop a charge. Same thing his does only his is hand held instead of clamped to a bench.

....Can anyone load .457s in an ROA with that little effort on the loading lever?

Mine requiresa bit more force that he is applying.

(Maybe he is an ape and it just doesn't show.)
