I've done this with AA, J&T (Wilson) and J&T (shaw) barrels, and it looks nothing like your photo. You should see land marks way before the cannelure, if at all.
But I use sharpie as a poor man's dykem. If you used paint it's probably too thick and malleable.
If you cannot chamber a factory Hornady 123g AMAX or SST round without the bullet sticking, then you have a defective barrel. (My read)
And the factory ammo shoots so well that I set my reload length to match, and get excellent accuracy with flawless reliability. (I shoot mostly the 123 AMAX & SST, along with some nosler blems)
