FWIW I think it'd be worth it to have a couple different targeted fits: solo explorer, WHC-gang explorer, and goofball battle magnate cus why not. I agree with Biwako... realistically the only folks who should be flying Magnates are alphas who literally have no other options or omegas doing battle Magnate for lulz.
Here's my vote for alpha solo explorer:

I like the inert stabs over the nanos because you gain half a second to warp, bringing you to 4.52s on the new Amarr char, but either is fine. Realistically the only thing that will catch you in that time is a long point (unless you're unbelievably unlucky), so adding a warp stab means you'll still get away if a small gang manages to get one point on you, and you'll still be able to crash gate before being blasted away if there's more than that or someone's within scram range. Adds some time to locking cans though.
Scan strength should be enough with frig 4, astrometrics 3, and astro acquisition 3 to get any relic/data site (probably needs sisters probes/launcher for sleeper caches, which a solo mag can't really do anyway).
Also I'm sorry for this:
