Do any of the marks on the bullet correspond to that scenario? Those long grooves can't be from a collet that small, though. I don't know where a collet grips the bullet (inertia man here) so I can't say.
The grooves make it look like a full sized collet was used and got good grip on the lead, but not the jacket. (Again, poorly bonded)
