autoloading
Cycles rounds itself
Autoloading describes a firearm that automatically loads the next round into the chamber after firing, using the energy from the previous shot: an autoloading pistol.
The shooter still pulls the trigger for each shot, distinguishing autoloading from fully automatic weapons.
In computing, autoloading refers to code or data that loads automatically when needed rather than being explicitly called.
