So those of you that have the "NEW" RD mold with the 'wrong' sized bullets, if you have cast some and loaded them up, which rifles are they CYCLING through?

At this point in time, I guess that's my biggest question, will it cycle. I have a Marlin 1894S and a 444S and would like it to cycle in both. I don't have a set of handles yet, otherwise I'd go out and pour a few to see.

Thanks for any input!

Plainsman, I cant tell you about the Marlins but I'm using this bullet for my Rossi 92 chambered in 44Mag. It feeds and cycles flawlessly. Heres a better pict of my 92.

Since the first picture was taken I've have had a Williams Fool Proof put on and a Marbles fiber optic.

Dale, the modified RD bullet cycles and chambers great thru my .444's. That larger meplat will give more smackdown, tho cutting down on BC. For the woods ranges I hunt, I'll never know the difference. I've yet to shoot it . That will be the true test. But optimism is high. GREAT looking bullet ! Forgot to mention, my triple fours are from MARLIN
