...anyone tried them? Have switched exclusively to 2 1/2" reloads and was wondering if they would cycle in the new Swt 16.

Hmm...that sounds like a very useful load, care to share it?

Thanks,

When I was field testing one of the new Sweet 16's, it cycled perfectly with Herter's 1 oz. Did not cycle reliably with either 3/4 or 7/8 oz RST's.
