crooked stripe

I am loading 200 gr lswc for a 45 colt. When setting the oal the shoulder on the bullet is lower than the case. The cases are running 7-10 thousands under-size. When shooting (only 2) burnt powder and debris is blowing back into the cylinder. The cc Rainier bullets (same weight and length) want to crimp on the down side of the rounded nose of the bullet. 1.600 oal is what the books say. I am loading 6.6 gr of Titegroup. I bought some Meister cast 250 grain rnfp bullets yesterday but the extra weight is in the length below the wax grove. Can someone please fill me in?
