These statements suggest that you are expecting the bead and cove to hide gaps rather than eliminate them. The strips should be touching along the full length and width and this applies with any radius bead and cove as well as bevelled strips.

Before you go any further it would be a very good idea to post some photos of what you mean so you can get the best advice.

Just for the record I'm another supporter of bevelled strips.
