    I'd say mainly a profile mismatch of the seating stem and said bullet. Excessive sizing/ no lube wouldn't help either.

    The trick I've heard about is to chuck up a bullet in a drill and coat it with valve grinding paste and work the stem. Should end up with a better profile or at least soften the main offending contact points.
