Never seen one or had experience with one - but off hand - if you aren't shaving lead when loading, you may be having gas loss on ignition - already addressed above.
There may also be a possibility that the chamber mouths have been coned by a reamer. This swages the ball to a smaller diameter rather than trimming it by shaving lead and actually results in a tighter fit. It also makes the starting of square based bullets easier.
