Ive never loaded 357sig before, but I have a friend who does. He does the same as you with the 40 die first, followed by the 357 die. The first thing I would try is cleaning your 357 die out and then run some through with lube.

A shipment of 125 grain JHP from Montana Gold is on it's way and is overdue to be delivered by the USPS. A set of the Lee 357 Sig dies are going to be used for loading my first batch of that caliber, so I will let you know if the same issue happens with the cases getting scratched using those dies. I have a mix of once fired and brand new cases to choose from for testing, so any scratching should be easily noticeable when using the new brass.
