Loading 41 magnum with Keith bullets...too long..?

I got in some great looking SWC Keith style bullets 220 grainers...and also got a new die for my casting friend to cast and both appear to result in too long Keith style 220 gr bullets...both have gas checks...really nice with 16gr No 9 Accurate...or 2400 ...but presebtly using No 9 Accurate...notice binding of the cylinder on occasion...and the bullets do not stick out of the chamber but are long rascals...checking the oal find I am 20 over...but still within in the cylinder...but wouldn't want any longer...so....do I shorten the brass and leave the bullets alone or do I seat over the forward edge.....what are the implications of either...not full house loads...but would guess pressures would increase slightly...? Thank in advance...
