TL;DR
Please allow the automation of basic turrets by letting inserters reload magazines.

Automating is the name of the game, and this allows you to fully automate all your defenses. Granted, there's a counter-argument that we should be more involved with turrets - but I think that is shot down by the need for remote bases.

They already do. They just don't fill them up all the way.

The max is like 5 or something.

What really? Oh. In that case, never mind. Lol. Just let them fill up a bit more then, maybe.

Ammo in a destroyed turret will be lost, ammo on a belt not. So as long as there is ammo available, it should be safer to load only just enough into a turret to keep it going.

Fair enough
