I've never used AA #2 or VV320 but on the burn chart they show to be about like W231/HP38 so I don't understand why you're having unburnt powder problems, even with loose throats. How bad is it?

You're correct, a larger diameter bullet would be held up in the throats & give a better burn but, again, that shouldn't be a problem with fast powders, more so with slow powders.
