Is something wrong?

DavidM.......................If they chamber easily and shoot and extract well, you may want to simply ignore this "problem".......FWB

They chamber easily but I haven't yet fired them to see if there is a change in impact or not. I still had some unfired brass left so I loaded them up first
 
Redding makes .458 Lott dies. Midway has them in stock.

Redding are my favority dies. But if you have only one rifle in this caliber, and hence don't need to extensively resize, simply back the resizing die off a little, tumble and clean brass, see if the unfired chamber easily, and proceed to load a moderate loading. Black powder cartridge shooters are familiar with loaded rounds that look like your initial example. Unless the situation is extreme, they often shoot just fine.......................FWB
 
Does this issue come up with the bottle neck hornady dies??

At Kalahari Safari, the Small Things Are the Big Things
The thrill of the stalk. The stillness of the wait. The age-old rhythm of the hunt.
It’s not just about the size of the trophy. It’s about the stories that will be told for years.
We believe the memories are the true prize. The small things are the big things.
And we’re proud to offer a hunting experience that honours exactly that.

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
