I solved that issue with the use of single shot followers in my repeater actions. Most of mine came from High Country Gunsmithing long ago. Not sure if he's still offering them, but they work as advertised, and takes that PITA out of the equation. I'm certain there's other sources for these SS followers, but they really work.

In use, the SS follower sits on top of the factory follower, making a nice, smooth loading tray for the cartridge. You can always remove it and turn the rifle back in to repeater-mode.
