Considering that they had micro-groove rifling, will Marlin 375s work well with cast bullets?

Mine works well with cast bullets. I ordered Laser Cast 240 grain bullets, sized to.379 and they work well at 2000 ft per sec. I had previously used the same bullet sized to.377 and it worked well up to about 1500 ft per sec but accuracy deteriorated after that.
