The manufacturer will usually say if a model is magnum rated or not. If it doesn't specifically say it is then I wouldn't risk it personally.

Had a magnum rated T8 on mine. Heavy as feck but did a great job on noise and recoil.

I'm sure a lighter more modern design could be sourced which is also magnum rated.

Hauskin have a mag. Rated moderator for 30 cal. My friend got it of John lambert in camolin. Not very heavy on rifle and takes away alot of the recoil for it.
