When this situation occurs, you can cycle the next round faster (and without taking your hands from their positions on the weapon) with a revolver rifle than you can with a semi-auto or even bolt-action rifle - and there's less chance of shifting the point of aim when you do so.
The Nagant is designed to cam the cylinder forward to mate with the barrel to retain all the pressure from the powder charge. The idea was that the poor quality control of the Czar's arsenals gun powder would be overcome this way. There isn't any cylinder blow by.
