Wierd Crimping

A friend at work loaned me his mould for the #358311 Lyman .38 Special bullet (the old original bullet for the .38) and I moulded around a hundred and sized and lubed them. I loaded part of them this morning and in spot checking them with a lens found they are crimping only half way around the case mouth. I got some reloads on hand which I reloaded a few months ago and the crimp on them is perfect, only the bullet is different on these. The only difference in the setting on the dies was on the resizer, and I set this back to resize the cases to the rim. Have any of you experienced this. I'm sure they will shoot OK but accuracy may suffer.
