Jeez, moon clips, folks either love 'em or hate 'em, the haters I'll never understand why,
unless they try to load and un-load them only by hand, I guess that will make you a hater real quick.
Been shooting all caliber of moon clips for a few years now, ALL are brass brand sensitive, even in 45 ACP.
If you want to do it all by hand, use loose fitting brass in your clips, it may take a few different brands of
ammo to figure out what works easiest.
Here's a link from TK Custom, everything you need in one stop shopping.
Order this loading bundle online from TK Custom and receive ten moon clips, one loader, and one unloading tool for your S&W .45 ACP model revolver.

Another vendor, George sells some good clips, you won't be sorry.

Here's a good video on the loading tools out there:

On loading tools, I'm a big fan of the BMT loader for rimmed brass, for rimless, not so much, but I have to
say I have not used the rimless BMT a lot.
At less than $15 for 10 moon clips you can afford to buy a bunch, I load my clips the night before a match
and chamber check them all (another tool u can buy) that way I don't have to fumble around during a match
and I know every loaded moon clip I grab is good.
If you plan on shooting your revo in competition or where speedy reloads matter get a good fitting clip and
brass combo and use a mooning and de-mooning tool, it makes life so much better.
If you want something to hold those loaded moon clips send me a msg, I can hook you up with holders and
some other accessories, come to think of it, I even have some of the Revolver Supply loaders in stock !!
