My double is a modern Merkel but I have no issues using Hornady or woodleigh softs or solids, I am more wary of monolithic projectiles, mainly for the reasons of causing damage to the solder between the barrels as opposed to good old barrel wear on the rifling.

I think too, when loading solids, you are obviously reducing loads to prevent over pressure with the harder projectiles.

I carry solids when I'm hunting, but tend to really only shoot softs at game - never had anything not go down and warrant a reload with solids
