Just a thought...

Try measuring the case wall thickness at the point where your bullets seat.

Could be (I don't have any on hand to test) that the Federal AE walls are thicker. Multiply that by 2 and you might be getting too much crimp compared to other brass which might cause the cases to deform ?????
