I only use hollow carbon fiber for grips so not much help for you. Can you use your calipers and reamers to get closer to the tolerance you need so your not forcing the grip down?
Are you sure it's the grips and not debris from reaming? Grit embedded in the grip from the reamer can wreak havok on a blank.
