To ghost load your Remington 870:
Load the magazine with as many rounds as you want with the action open.
Drop a round in the chamber.
Place a round on the elevator.
Push down on the round as you partially close the action to get it started.
Pust the elevator back up as you close the action the rest of the way so the nose of the round partially enters the magazine.
Viola!
I don't know if this works with other pump shotguns.
I tried this on a Mossberg 500 with dummy rounds. The bolt and shell lifter are too tightly linked and I could not close the action with a round on the shell lifter. I did figure out a "cruiser ready" position with a shell on the lifter and a mostly open bolt.
