Enabling "Rest Machining: From Setup Stock" in the test file eliminated all collisions in the test file for me. The tool is plunging because the ramp mode is set to plunge. Setting the ramp mode to helix will always force a helix, and will never plunge (it will instead skip the area entirely).Capture.PNG

 Also, there is something to be said about having a tolerance that is nearly 20% of the tool diameter and bigger than the stock to leave value. That is definitely going to cause problems with gouging and causing undesired collisions. I realize you're working with a large file, but I still recommend using the default tolerance settings.
