Default New APC 14X10 on YS110S - Need Advice

I need some tech info, never had this problem before. Each time I have purchased new APC 14X10 props for this YS, I had to ream them out a little, fit and tighten great.
I went down to the LHS, bought two new 14X10's. Came back, they both fit the shaft with no reaming. They fit up snug, but not that tight. Put on Tru-Turn spinner backplate, prop, washer with nut, it will not tighten as when I reamed out these props.

I am putting some grunt on it, seems like to tighten, but not to almost stop. Put the lock-nut on, it bottoms to the nut, then I have both of them turning to an almost stop. Something amiss? Is APC sending the prop's so you do not have to ream?

Am I OK here?

Advice and opinion's appreciated.
