Don't know how it would do with a rifle mag but I bet two of the same strips mounted alongside each other would do the trick
Last time this came up I suggested you could buy those at IKEA, then we had some kind of a thread jack.

That sounds really cool. Could work in more than 4 sides if the carousel is big enough.

Don't know if anyone has used them, but I've bought a few of those magnetic labels from www.ammocanmagnets.com.
They work like fridge magnets, and they sell all the regular ammo flavors, as well as some other labels for brass/medical/tools, etc. You just slap it on the latching handle or on the side, and away you go. Being magnetic, you can simply pull it off if you need to repurpose the ammo can.
I've also bought magnetic number lists so that I can see at glance the quantities that each ammo can contains. I just slip on some new numbers once I stock up.
Oh, the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And those heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn
