Mill/Turn working in simulation but machined result is off the model. Offsets are correct

Hello, I'm trying to mill/turn this cutter on a Haas ST-15y. It was made on Fusion sometime last year but when I came back to the file the original toolpaths for milling the head were gone. I've tried everything that I can think of but the end result is always off in the lathes z axis. Current program runs fine in the simulation but the 2 large bevels aren't cutting deep enough in the z axis for the pockets to be machined correctly. Running Fusion without the machining extension, do I need the extension for this or is there a solution I've missed?

 

Thanks

The Extension is not required for what you're doing. It's likely a tool or workoffset that is not set correctly.

@nickjohnsonHWRC2 if you can share your file, I can poke at it and see if anything is off.

Thanks, was just about to ask if you could. Went through my offsets again and everything seems on target. The part length and diameter come out fine and the holes are drilled in the correct place but the milling keeps coming out around .060" +Z off, mills down to centerline fine. Using the same live holder for the endmills and drills.
