Today's Remington 10 ga hulls have steel heads (unlike Federal 10ga hulls that use brass). The steel heads may have some memory and expand a little after resizing. If you can adjust your resizer to squeeze the head even smaller I would try that. If you are using a MEC reloader with a collet resizing ring replace it, the wear over time. Federal hulls with their brass heads give the least amount of trouble in guns with tight chambers but I understand they can be hard to find.
