Is there such thing as a tactical reload for revolvers? If you only fire three times, but in a lull in action want to get a full cylinder ready, how do you do that with out loosing your remaining two or three rounds? I cant imagine sifting through the empty casings to find the live rounds during a shooting.

I saw Ayoob on a show today (Personal Defense TV, I think), and he suggested the following:
1) You shoot, expending some, but not all, of your six rounds in a revolver.
2) Open the cylinder, and dump the brass and remaining rounds into your hand.
3) Drop the brass and unfired rounds into your pocket
4) Reload using a speeloader or speed strip.
This method gets the gun back into action faster than trying to dig out the spent casings and replace them one by one. You still have the original unspent rounds in case you need them, but you have a full pistol that's back in action.
