The real problem here is that some cases are simply thicker towards the center. Winchester cases will bulge in the center if WC's are forced down below the case mouth. Espescially their plus p cases.
Remington cases work very well with wadcutters.
If you resize a case with a bullet you are also reducing the bullet diameter.
I've done this and then removed the bullet and found they were .355 or under.
They may bump up when fired but that is not really condusive to accuracy.
You will also loose case tension and may end up with a bullet walking out of the case.
You need to determine which cases will accept a fully seated WC without expanding the case beyond the size which will fit your chamber.
Mike the ones that fit at the mouth and center of the case. Then using only a unprimed case of other brands seat a wadcutter. If they require extra force to seat or bulge the case then don't use that brand.
Also keep your gun handy as as an instant go no go gauge for fit.
