OK - I think I answered my own question. The Mag was in correctly (I believe). Apparently when I bedded it, it raised the reciever slightly, which appears to have removed some pressure on the follower spring. What I did was put a .030 shim under the follower spring, inside the blind mag well to add a little omph. I tried it with a couple of dummy rounds I had loaded and they appear to load fine. Tomorrow I'll take it to the range using some of the longer loaded rounds and see if the problem corrects itself.
If anyone out there has a suggestion, such as a pic of the follower in the mag, etc., still please post it as I want to be confident my conclusions were correct.
Thanks everyone....
