If bullets had to be made to an exact size to "be in spec" they would cost $10 each. If your chambers are clean, slight variation in bullet fit is of little significance as long as they chamber and fire with acceptable accuracy.
SAAMI standards for ammunition and chambers allow variation for manufacturing tolerances. Nothing raises manufacturing costs like requiring extremely limited tolerances.
