Dear Clayarters,
This action probably is caused by the exit hole of a smaller size not being
centered over the main hole.

This is a fine sounding answer. I like it. It's similar to John
Hesselberths answer, but has a better visual logic to it.
Now let's see...Lets just say: When you pull on the plunger you are
compressing the clay and the presure is distributed equally through out. In
an extreme case, when the exit hole was just at the side of the barrel,
there would be no lateral pressure on the side next to the barrrel and it
would curl that way. This should be something we can test. Even if my
logic is completely wrong.
