30 cents a round seems to be the going price at many internet stores,
but I don't mess with stripper clips.

I doubt your AR will even use stripper clips. I can see why you don't
mess with them. My M1A can directly charge the magazine in the gun
from the top with a stripper clip and the bolt kicks it out of the
holder when you close it.

The box came with an attachment for the clip.

I have a couple of those magazine loader "spoons" John was talking
about but I have never used them. I always load the magazines from
loose rounds. I do have some battle packs in strippers but I haven't
even opened the bags. I have a bunch more in strippers in a can but I
haven't got down to shooting them either. I am still working on stuff
that was boxed. If you just stack them in a 30 cal ammo can in
alternate directions you get almost 400 rounds in there that way.

I am very deliberate when it comes to handling and using firearms,
overly cautious, as it were. I have a little device that pushes the
rounds down into the mags and allows me to hand load the mags a round at
a time. That's the way I like to do it. Typically, the items I shoot -
the soda bottles, paper targets, and gongs - tend to stay about where I
put them and are well-trained enough to not come after me.

I bought the shiny speed loaders for my .357 MAG revolver because I
thought they were a cool bit of kit.
