It uses the same mags as a Maverick, and I believe the max length is around .420" in mine.

Great thank you.
I wish all airgun manufacturers would post max pellet length on their specs. Sure would be very helpful to not purchase nonfitting pellets

Since that mag in .30 with hold 65.5 grain slugs, I don't think you'll have to worry about having enough ammo weight ;)  I did want to make sure and respond to this, because I remember someone posting previously it is was only 9mm or so, but the mags also have a relief in the cover too, so they can hold some decent length ammo pretty easily. 

I'd guess manufacturers probably never will list that info, because they're worried about people not buying their guns due to the ammo length it can hold.  But yeah, listing that would make life much easier for a lot of us...
