Already have a BW, but I keep looking at the Sidewinder and Rangers at the  gun shows. Are there any speedloaders available for these models?

Welcome Taku!

Dave makes speedloaders, the guy who posted above me, and they work well and are very good.  He makes loading boxes and unloaders too, I love mine for sure!

The Sidewinders are a bit hit and miss on speed loaders working.
The cylinder does not swing out far enough on many to allow clearance for the speed loader.
Some have figured out how to clearance the assembly with some judicious filing, to get them to work.

The DS-10 Speed loaders are the bees knees on Rangers though.
Quick and simple.

Filing the crane pocket on the Sidewinder is to allow the cylinder to full swing out so cartridges can freely fall out, a speed loader will still be inhibited from a clean entry by the grips.

I am not concerned about maintaining a warranty on a product that doesn't work for me.

I love my speed loader from Dave.  Love my loader box also.

It was for the new folks that may not know it.
They may want to maintain their warranty.

I have a sidewinder and has been mentioned on this thread speedloaders don't seem to work well with it since the cylinder doesn't swing out far enough.
You can get .22 speed strips though and that's what I use. You can get 10 shot speed strips so you'll have two reloads on one strip.

I like the speed strips too.  They work well with a little practice, and don't take up much room in the pocket or pack.  They don't rattle, and nothing to break.
