Unless he was using steel case rounds, most ammunition isn’t magnetic, it wasn’t going to cause issues with the machine… he’s still a fucking idiot though.
An MRI works at 3T to 7T. At that range oxygen is slightly magnetic (Everything is magnetic, just not ferromagnetic). This can cause damage to the machine if it misaligned a critical component.
Nice when they refill the MRI and need to quench it again.

The spring in the mag is steel
That’s fair, I miss read that, assumed he had dumped a mag full of rounds on the ground, vs a mag with rounds in it.
