Would also explain the mark on the top of the projectile if too much force was needed to seat the projectile.

Yep that's what i think too, you can get a clean bronze brush or even a nylon one and scrub the inside of the neck . This will help by taking the carbon off the inside.
My 270 die when seating the 145 gr ELD X leaves a ring just under the tip, doesn't seem to upset the accuracy though.
