Default a few omega questions

well got me a new Z5 and I had a few questions as far as priming goes, do anyof you use a tool of some sort for fast priming, I mean with the sidekick those little plastic primer holders that some dont like I loved in a hunting situations last week I was 3 secs away from droping a another deer after I shot the first I managed to reload in 10 secs just as I capped the gun again she took off, but with the plastic "thingys" it was quick even with gloves on???is there a good tool out there that you can have ready and waiting along with pre measured load and bullete...aswell I know some might come back with good luck loading a second shot in the omega but I amd gonna have a powerbelt if my regular sabot is to hard to load, the PB flies about 3 inched hiegher in my dads gun so once I pattern mine thats what I am gonna use if the sabots are to hard to load...

Thompson makes a red soft plastic primer holder and capper. It holds 6 or 7 primers and you can use the holes in the ends of the thing insert the primer into the breech plug.

I am sure a Dog Bone Capper would work. They hold ten 209 primers and are easy to carry. In fact with the addition of a string it will hang around your neck. This might be the way. I still have to get me one of them $169.00 Omega's. Our Wal Mart has nothing so I am going to make a run to a Giant Wal Mart a couple hours away once it stops snowing. That should be June.
