Problem is that factory RR heads are closer to 1/8oz than 1/16. The ones I poor from my Do-it mold are just right.
Absolutely are right the 1/16 Original Roadrunner head is close to 1/8. I have some ponies as well and their 1/16 is close enough. I find their 1/32 is really about 1/24 and I use both them and the real Roadrunner 1/32 and both work well for me. I can follow them after the spawn into water as deep as 20' and catch them, but it's usually near the Hydrilla. I find it very easy to use in water to 10' deep, but just don't worry if I find them deeper. A huge % of the time though I will find them in normal times in water 6 1/2 to 7 1/2 foot of water during the spawn. If I should luck into some right on the bank the 1/32 is really great in the 1' to 3' of water over their beds.

I don't cast for them though, well 98% of the time anyway. I longline them in the spring time.
