I had this problem in the past with Wolf brass and a chamber that had ANY powder fouling at all. If the chamber was perfect clean, they would generally chamber, but any fouling and no way. My Lee dies would size AA/Lapua brass just fine, but the Wolf brass, either because it was thinner or because it had more springback, (or both!) or for some other reason, would not size correctly. I eventually had to shave .003" or so off the shell holder to get my Wolf brass to work. Until someone pointed that solution out, I just didn't use Wolf brass.
It looked perfect, but simply wouldn't chamber if there was ANY crud at all. (Which is one of the reasons I quit using BLC2).
The Lapua would do just fine.
Bump the shoulders another thousandth or two and see what happens.
