Asuka, I'll re-enter this thread to do my best to answer your question. The way it's been explained to me is that magnum cartridges don't feed well into Semi-Auto's (DE) because they were created with revolvers in mind and the overall length and shape of the magnum cartridge creates a bad angle through the feed-ramp and into the chamber. This bad angle creates a greater probabilty that a round will get stuck on the way into the chamber which creates more malfunctions (jams). This is why people say the DE is unreliable. It seems to be more a problem with attempting to fire revolver rounds through a semi-auto than a design/engineering type problem. That is how I understand it.
