I've had this problem a lot over the years. Usually, it had something to do with tuning the e-steps of the printers on all of the non-ulitmaker printers. I've even had a Prusa from the factory have the same exact issues. If using an Ultimaker printer, try and set your horizontal expansion settings to what others have listed in the forums. Another thing, equalize all of your jerk settings (I use 20), and speed settings. Moreover, play with the slicing tolerance and set it to exclusive for better dimensional accuracy. Finally, make sure the model is cooled before you remove the print bed from the printer. Then measure it. Hope this helps!

In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
