You could try a very minor amount of flare and see if that works. Or a very minor amount of chamfer will allow jacketed seating without issues.This DID, seem to do the trick.. I can't bench press the bullet back in now, and that is without applying any crimp. The expander portion of the flare die must be the problem, backing it out to just before the bell, is keeping the expander portion from dropping in to deep.
Lyman (and others) make what they call an “M” die that will expand the correct dimensions and are great for lead or coated bullets. Good to hear you at least have an idea on what the issue is.
