The general word about Rigoutat is that it is reed friendly so it should be fine. I have tried the Legere on a few oboes and they have been consistent across all oboes.

It was very very tight on my Fox 300, a bit looser but still tight on my XL. Maybe the unit I got was a defect because multiple people who play XL's say it fits pretty well. There generally has been very little complaints about fitting the reed, most of them are from Loree AK players.

I was still able to get mine to fit by sanding it down. The sides did start leaking though because I sanded it down too much and started opening up. I wrapped some thread around it and that fixed the issue. It brought the two sides of the reed closer so now it's an even better fit. The thread also gives me more grip so my fingers don't slip and destroy the reed.

See the attached picture of my reed.
