They drive in tight, but they go in. The new one should be about .385, and after you drive it in, and remove it later, its about .378 ish. Just make sure the cam plate is flat, and dont let the hammer " bounce" on the fiber button material. In other words, hit it " deadblow" solid, nice steady hits, it'll go right in. Just make sure to hit it square. There should be a recess on the pin of the button to assist starting it in the hib as well.
If its really .014 big, you can take a flat file or sandpaper on a solid board and sand it down a touch, but like I said, they usually go in tight.
