Cast bullets for 41GNR #2 revolver

In Gary's reloading manual it mentions the Cast Performance 250 or 255 gr WFN bullets. I picked up some 240gr WFN-GC bullets from Montana Bullet works but it seems that I am having to seat the bullet way past the crimp groove to get it to fit into the cylinder so that it moves freely. The bullets I am using sized to .411 dia and the Cast Performance are sized to .410 dia. The cases go into the cylinder with no issues prior to seating the bullet. The nose to crimp is .365 on the Montana bullets and .275 on the Cast Performance. My question is should I just seat the bullets past the groove or find another bullet? Or maybe try a WLN bullet as there seems to still be plenty of room in the cylinder?
