I just now made up my first dummy handloads for the new Hornaday dies. Just did 4 with OaL from 2.16 thru 2.288. 2.288 did clear the CZ 527 magazine with very little extra room. All 4 rounds loaded smoothly with no hang-ups or balky/jerky loading. The mags do have a little wiggle when seated - perhaps from the way I installed the bottom metal. I went by the directions and did no adjustment or trial fitting. Just screwed it together and it ran as described.
I can't comment in the factory mags and bottom metal as I never tried them at all. The original plastic might have been OK but I too believe that Murphy lurks at every turn and I feel safer and more confident with the metal. I'm happy with my purchase.
