this is not unusual. You should measure the OAL with ogive gauge on every lot#.

On some brands, .040 is not unusual.

when I ran out of my last box of 500 of Berger VLD H, opened the next box, different lot, there was .020 difference in ogive lengths between the two lots.

Both lot# shot bug hole groups, just had to adjust my seater.
