I use the over the top or slingshot method (I think these are the same, not sure), but I am training myself to use the slide release because my newest IDPA gun (Walther Q5 Match) has a nice big slide release and it seems like it should be quite a bit quicker to seat the new mag with my support hand, then just rotate it clockwise and hit the slide release. This gun also has a convenient tendency of releasing the slide when I slap in a new magazine, something I consider to be a feature and not a bug, so that is also nice.
