Sine you can chamber the rounds just shoot them. I did the same thing a few years ago. I started using the Hornady Headspace gauge and this has helped me size my cases just the right amount without pushing the shoulder back too much. I do like to feel just the slightest amount of resistance when I close the bolt, but not too tight. Use them for target shooting and not for hunting when a stuck case could be a problem. Not likely to happen but just use the loads at the range just to be sure.

Buy a case gauge. It'll save you headaches on sizing and length of cases.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Can it cause any damage to my gun to shoot them?

Cases tight on fit entering the chamber aren't a problem. Cases that are upon exiting is another entity. Yep. Sometimes you just need a bigger hammer to open the bolt.

Mistakes are how you learn something's, good that you caught it. Better luck next time.
If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.
