According to
this page, it went through a couple of different iterations. The one you're describing seems to be the first generation, if I'm interpreting this correctly:

On the HIMAG, the six-round carousel that fed the breech was part of the gun cradle, meaning that the carousel would move with the gun as it elevated or depressed. On the HSTV-L, the six-round carousel was mounted directly below the gun breach in a static position. The breech would always remain in the same position relative to the turret, since it was mounted along the trunnion line. This allowed for both the carousel and gun to be replenished continuously despite the gun’s position.

(Also, I need to fix my stat lines to include a larger magazine and to add thermal imaging.)
