Default TC Bone Collector - very tight barrel

Having a dickens of a time with my TC Bone Collector barrel. I bent 3 ramrods trying to load this thing. Start with clean barrel, then swabbed with bore butter. Loaded 100 grn Blackhorn 209 with TC Shock Wave 250 gr. bullets and yellow SuperGlide Sabots. Loading was difficult, it took 2 hands with lots of pressure to get it to seat. Finally got it loaded and fired a shot. Tried to load the second shot without swabbing and found it almost impossible. Lucky I didn't bend another ramrod. Am I doing something wrong or is it a defective barrel? I read scuttlebut that said TC's were notorious for tight barrels. True or false? HELP!
