How do you grip the magazine under cover garment?

What’s the first part(s) of your hand that contacts the magazine/carrier during a reload?

 

ive tried to study video of pros, but there are actually limited numbers of videos with good slow speed visualization of this process.  Bob Vogel is one with a good view of his technique....

 

For years now, I have swept the cover and dropped the base of my palm atop the base pad of the magazine to initiate the ‘pull’.

 

lack of consistency despite much practice with this technique led me to try a different technique. instead I am experimenting with an inside cover sweep and starting the reload by putting my index fringe onto the side of the magazine such that my index tip is actually on the carrier side, followed quickly with thumb and fingers 4-5 wrapping around the base of the magazine as I pull it up and out.

 

i know there are many styles and pros/cons....but what do you do, and what thoughts do you have on those techniques?
