Here's an update for anyone who still cares, all my material has arrived and I am in production now.
My original design was a staggered feed traditional box but I didn't like the way it scratched up the brass as it slid along the unfinished receiver rails. I switched to a top loading, centerfeed internal magazine that doesn't scratch the brass anymore.
This current design is going to evolve into a truly flush detachable magazine in the future.
You load the magazine by pushing the round straight down into the top of the feed lips.
Original design, you can see the scratches from feed testing.

Here is the center feed design, you can see the feed lips in the pic.
