I think he eventually "subconciously held back because of guilt" so many times that his powers went from controlling magnetism to controlling everything. It went from just controlling metal to controlling the charges on an atomic level to controlling everything related to magnetism (which seems to be everything) and now to just anything.
It's funny because many a-years ago I read a theory that Magneto was actually a very powerful telekinetic but because of his terrible childhood it manifested as "magnetism". Back then I thought "no way, that just make him stupidly powerful"

Maggie wins easily. No reason why GL should win.Magneto ripped Apocalypse to shreds with magnetic fields alone. He'd do the same to a GL.
Besides, the ring would protect them from that.

Hal: Behold how your flying metal debris flies harmlessly off my shield!
