How fast were you pushing them?
I have read that the 100-grainers will stabilize in the 1:14 barrels if you push them to top velocity, i.e. 2800 fps or so. The reason is, at that velocity you're spinning them fast enough for them to stabilize.
Of course, I read the above "information" on the internet, which makes it worth exactly what I paid for it. Still, it does lead me to ask, when you were trying the 100-grainers in your rifle and they were keyholing, how fast were you pushing them?
