Is a mixed Mageaena with Iron Head viable? Does uninvested +1 iron head do more damage to the likes of tyranitar, Sylveon, Gardevoir, Nihlego etc?

The only benefit is hitting Chansey a bit harder, but in reality is just a more gimmicky sharpen gen 4 Porygon z.
I'd stick to special with pursuit support.
+1 0- Atk Magearna Iron Head vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Tyranitar: 204-242 (59.8 - 70.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252+ SpA Magearna Flash Cannon vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Tyranitar: 192-228 (56.3 - 66.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
its not enough of a difference and super specific too matter, not toention soul heart

Nihlego is also hit pretty hard though, not to mention the flinch rate

You aren't flinching anything going second with that speed stat all the time. Calm Mind + 3 attacks remains the best set IMO.

Magearna's only getting to +1 Attack off of a Shift Gear, which means it's also at +2 Speed. The flinch rate would be a factor, though not enough of one to really justify running a Physical move that isn't Explosion on that set.

It gets Shift Gear, which is Dragon Dance but with an extra speed buff added.
