Reliability of American-designed drum magazines for a 5.56mm platform has generally been lacking. They have not been able to satisfy procurement requirements. Sure they run well in manufacturer demo videos, but they fall way short during detailed testing.
I have zero experience with a drum in a 7.62x39mm platform, but I imagine they have their own issues and are fragile without meticulous maintenance.
Like water finding its level, that's why the 30-round magazinr had become standard. It's pretty much mechanical evolution.
