On the flip side of that, I have a K-frame S&W revolver that shoots groups with unsized, as-cast Lee Tumble Lube wadcutters that are half the size it achieves with commercial match loads.

Bottom line, try it and see.
Of that I have no doubt. The challenge is getting a "few" of each to try out. I think MBC will sell me sample numbers but I'm not sure where to get the rest. I kinda need to start out with a good idea and then have it be right. Yeah, and win the lottery too while I'm at it.
