The magazine is tubular by definition, a tube that holds rounds. It can still be loaded with the side gate which is in fact the only way to load this model.

Hi Brandon, yes, I would consider this a higher end lever action. You load the tubular magazine through the side gate with this rifle. Stay safe & have a great day!

Hi Brandon and welcome. You actually use the side gate to load the 10rd tubular magazine. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!

These models just use the terminology "Tubemag" just because it is tube fed. You actually do load them into the tube through the side gate.
