It’s definitely easier and faster that way. I always did that too even though I did not have the OP’s issue.
But that does not negate 2152hq’s point that it should work with a fully closed gate too. If you actually use the rifle, like I did for deer hunting, it would be a pain not to be able to top off the magazine after firing one or a couple of rounds in the field.
