"I'm leaning towards the 450BM for a couple of reasons most the same as the ones I lean towards 5.56 derivatives in AR's. You can use the same magazines so no need to buy all new ones. Factory brass from Starline (tons of 5.56 out there dirt cheap for conversion to whatever you want like 300BO)."
Please correct me if I am wrong, but it is the 458 SOCOM that uses standard mags without changing anything and the 450 BM that requires its own specialized single stack follower. Starline has them both covered. I like the SOCOM if I am going big.
