Normally, yes. But any reload that is not from slidelock is a tactical reload, even if the mag is empty (but a round in the chamber). You don't want to use a partial mag in a match if you have full mags - you are allowed to carry extra mags in your pocket. And if you still have a full mag in the pouch, if you put a partial mag back in the pouch, you might accidentally grab it instead of the full mag on the next reload.
