You should probably not load it in that manner, as there is a chance you can break the extractor. It has to jump onto the rim of the case, which requires a good deal of force, in a direction that it is not really designed for. The loaded chamber indicator does not register, because the round is not properly chambered - the extractor claw has not jumped over behind the rim - probably a good thing, especially on a Taurus, which is known to have a lot of MIM parts.
Always load a semi-auto pistol from the magazine, so the round can slip up under the extractor claw from the bottom, as it is designed to do.
