Thanks again for information.
I shot the pistol again today. It works well without filling the one hole that doesn't clear. I had thought it due to forcing cone, front of cylinder clearance, but it was always back toward the firing pin on the pawls, ratchet and face plate that pushes the cylinder forward for the gas seal.
As Twmaster from Dallas showed above, I've made some with more of the bullet protruding like a standard revolver load. Although I have not shot these yet, I am fairly proud of them.
Hopefully I can get a photo up... Brass colored case is 1978 surplus Russian round in middle for comparison. I swaged these bullets as well to .311, and 800X at 3.1 grains. It does not always burn it well depending on aspect inside case.
I did order some Fiocchi for boxer primed full length cases as recommended above by others, don't know what I will do with them when they arrive. Will probably shoot a few to see how they do in comparison.
