[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2198543, member: 26077"] I tried 500 grain Hornady RN and solids. Both need to be crimped and if loaded at the cannaleure they are too long. Hodgdon doesn't list a load over 400 grains for the Marlins/Levers but I know there are lots of places making them. If you had a second cannaleure and could seat the bullets much deeper you can probably get them to work but you would need to make sure you used the right powder so you have enough room. [/QUOTE]
