Has anybody tried to load and use  a Beta Mag with 458 Socom?

The drums of the beta mag have cams designed to grip the diameter of the .223 round.  The 458 would screw them all up.  The MWG 90 rounder might work, though; I don't know if it grips the individual rounds or not.

Yea the beta won't work because they are single stack in the drums , but I think it was VTDefender that used a 90rd MWG with 36rd's of beowulf with no problems . So I would  think that .458 would have a good chance of working in them . Just a thought .
