To submit to SAAMI, you must be a member, which is by invitation. Hornady picked up the Grendel, and they were a member, and so they were the submittor.
No one but AA manufactures Beowulf, and with all the big companies already running their own big bores, SAAMI submission is unlikely unless Hornady or another member were to pick it up. Hornady builds .450 Bushmaster ammo, if I remember correctly, so they don't have a huge reason to jump in, though Hornady is a great company, and very friendly to shooters in general, and may decide to do it anyways.
You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
