Hi, The bullets I sell on TM were designed for the Marlin if you go to 500 grain bullets you have to seat them quite deep so they will feed from the magazine or load them single shot,
to shoot long range the Marlin is the wrong gun you need some thing along the lines of Sharps 1874, Winchester 1885 Remington rolling block with 30" or longer barrel with a 535 gr
Postell bullet,
For moulds Lyman is about as low as I go in quality Lee are total rubbish if you want to cast more than 100 at a time RCBS and SAECO are the best of the commercial moulds
custom moulds are the way to go if you are serious about casting your own.
