With the ball out, try to put it down the barrel. If it doesn't fit, your barrel bore is smaller than your chamber.
Well, maybe.

It's possible, in fact quite common, that the swaged ball is smaller in diameter than the groove diameter but larger than the land diameter, in which case it would not fit down the bore but would still be inaccurate and leave the bore at reduced velocity.
