9.0 grains of Blue Dot in a 357mag case is around 2/3 full, there is plenty of room left over for the 180 gr bullets I load. I'm not sure what's happerning, but you may want to double check your scale with some check weights (around $15 for a set), also make sure your powder has blue flakes in it (Yes, double check the obvoius too)
