I would contact Marty Ter Weeme of Teppo Jutsu. He is the owner of the .458 SOCOM and could most likely answer that question for you.
I would guess that they would not stack properly since the .458 case is larger in diameter than a .308, it has a .308 casehead but it is a rebated casehead. It may be difficult and your capacity will most likely be limited to 3 rounds in a 5 round mag.
I love my .458 SOCOM, it is a RRA though, not a Teppo. http://www.teppojutsu.com/

I hope with a bit of tweaking they will work I have contacted Marty as yet no reply. I'm thinking 6 or 7 in a 10 shot aics .308 mag I feel that as si mags are center feed single stack they may work we will see I suppose
