Uniball 207 Ink Fill

[randyrls]

I have a VERY OLD (20 years?) Baron dressed in Bethlehem Olive Wood finished in CA. It still looks good and is my personal go-to pen. BUT I have never had good luck with ink fills. Even the Schmidt and high priced fills only last a short while and then skip. Someone gave me a Uniball 207 pen and told me these are tamper resistant.

I pulled out a sheet of paper, and OMG!!! this thing writes SOOO SMOOTH!

I looked at the pen and removed the inkfill from my trusty Baron; unscrewed the nib on the Uniball and removed the inkfill. PERFECT MATCH! The inkfill extends a little bit more than the standard replacement inkfills that fit the Baron but it writes wonderfully! IF this works out, these are going to be in all my rollerballs from here on out!

Do you know what size point is on your cartridge?

I first learned about the signo (as I know the type) from an talk that Frank Abignale gave about protecting yourself from fraud. Evidently this $1.79 pen is one of the best ways to protect you from check washing.
However I can't say that I've had any better luck with this cartridge over other Schmidts in terms of skipping, but I just learned today that it has 4 different point sizes so I'm wondering if my problem is there.
