Are the unfired bullets pulling themselves out of the case during recoil?
I would measure six rounds and load them in the gun. Shoot two then measure the remaining four and see if they have lengthened. Seating depth affects pressure and if the bullets are pulling out, the pressure will drop causing a loss of velocity.
