Sorry if someone else mention it and I didn't notice.
Have you try with another program? Design the same object and cut?

Managed to sort out my problem. Almost too embarrassed to tell but.. as it turns out it is not wise to calibrate machine axis with a dial indicator. At least a machine that has not super accurate ballscrews. Also the testpart that showed inside measures correctly and outside wrong, was coincidence I believe. I re-calibrated my axis with a 300mm caliper. Problem solved.

So anyway here is a little cherry on my strawberry cake:
Material: S335
8000rpm, 350mm/min, DOC 3mm, 2-flute TiAIN 6mm endmill.
Some chatter but nothing major... Shitty workholding. Nice blue chips where flying :)
