Can an astra Militarum unit move in the shooting phase after arriving via reinforcements?

In matched play with beta rules, no.

It's a unit that started in tactical reserves that turn, so it can't move for any reason after being placed on the table.

Would you mind quoting the rule, because I'm not seeing that restriction anywhere.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF THE MANPEROR OF MANKIND, STOP SAYING THIS IS A BETA RULE.

This genuinely upsets me when people spread this falsehood. This is not a beta matched play rule, this is a BRB Special Snowflake FAQ that applies to ALL forms of play.

To answer the OP, no, you cannot, due to the BRB FAQ.
The rules for reinforcements say that when a unit is set up on the battlefield as reinforcements, it cannot move or Advance further that turn, but can otherwise act normally (shoot, charge, etc.).

Q: Can such a unit make a charge move? Can it pile in and consolidate?
A: Yes to both questions – the unit can declare a charge and make a charge move, and if it is chosen to fight, it can pile in and consolidate.

Q: Can such a unit move or Advance for any other reason e.g. because of an ability such as The Swarmlord’s Hive Commander ability, or because of a psychic power such as Warptime from the Dark Hereticus discipline, or because of a Stratagem like Metabolic Overdrive from Codex: Tyranids, etc.?
A: No.

He said it was in the beta rules, so I asked him to quote the beta rule since I couldn't find it. What's wrong with that?

You've done nothing wrong. It's people who keep saying it's a beta rule despite it being totally untrue.

To give BCB some credit the rule has been out for months and yet people are still misinterpreting it as a 'beta' rule when clearly it is not, so I'll forgive him for all capping as even I find people who call it a beta rule annoying as feth.*

*This is from my experience of telling the same group of players on numerous occasions that it's not optional or a beta rule in test. And this group claims to be tournament players.

The same guy who recently started a thread over a question answered waaay back in the Designers Commentary doesn’t get to trip out the ALL CAPS, sorry. It’s not his personal forum. A little more being kind and assuming positive intent goes a long way.

But still these rules are under the headline "Beta Matched Play Rules". This has nothing to do if they are optional or not but they are "beta rules".

Alone for the sake of a better reference it is correct and there is no need for certain people to throw a tantrum.

What on earth are you talking about? Nothing in the BRB FAQ is under "Beta Matched Play Rules". Are you perhaps referring to the actual Beta Matched play rules that have nothing to do with this question?

To be fair, there is a 'beta' version of the rule that's slightly different from the main one (in the BIG FAQ) - with so many FAQs, and errata documents it's easy to get it mixed up. All caps probably uncalled for without clarification first; maybe medication is required!

They wouldn't be frequently asked questions if they weren't frequently asked.

@BCB: Since you live in the forum, perhaps you should make a top 10 YMDC FAQ and have those answers ready to copy paste.
