I would try cleaning your 430 die out real well and checking the inside dia. You may have a die that was mismarked.

Thanks for all the help. Turns out that my micrometer internals went flakey and I got a replacement and that seemed to be the problem....

Lamar,
Funny you should mention that about magma...have had that problem also in the past.
