As far as locking open the toggle, do you keep an empty magazine for that purpose? Any other way to do it?

1- Release the winder FIRST, settle the ammo column, lock open,
insert drum. On a full drum, leaving the winder "locked" just does not made any difference- think about the pressure you have to use with the loader to get the last few rounds in!
2- Yes, an empty mag, or a carefully manipulated chop-stick.
