I have always used jacketed bullets, but I picked up some lead .45 and I am not sure about what is happening. I was making up a dummy load to be able to set my die.  When I seated the bullet into the case it shaved the bullet and left globs of lead smeared along the outside of the case.
The bullets are .4527 on average and the cases are .4475 = .0052. Now do I resize the bullet or do I expand the case??????????????      Or What DO I DO???????????

Bell the case mouth a little more before you seat.
